-# AI rot
-
-## what happened
-
-AI rotting is such a thing — watch out for it. so easy to get sucked in, need to have breaks at like 10-minute intervals.
-
-## why it's a gotcha
-
-when you're deep in an AI-assisted coding session and things are breaking, your instinct is to keep prompting. "fix this." "try again." "what about this approach." hours pass. you haven't thought independently in a long time. your brain goes into passive consumption mode — you're not problem-solving anymore, you're just reacting to outputs. and when things are working, you feel productive, but you might not actually understand what was built.
-
-## the fix
-
-set a timer. every 10-15 minutes, step away from the screen for even 60 seconds. ask yourself: do i understand what just happened? can i explain this code without looking at it? if not, you're rotting. especially when things are breaking — that's when you most need to step away and think, not keep prompting.
