100% on your point that AI is a tool, not a teammate. It can be easy to forget that what we're engaging with is 0s and 1s and not a breathing person. Thanks for reading!
The reality is that it's likely going to come back to bite all of us in some form, because given the accelerated pace of development, odds are very high we're interacting with insecure applications either directly or indirectly via a 3rd party.
You almost need to assume everything is insecure similar to how you can assume your personal information is out there after all the data breaches.
This hits hard. And it worries too.
AI is a tool, not a teammate;
especially when starting from scratch.
The traps you outlined are real:
Blind trust will break things. Always verify.
Over-engineering slows you down.
And not all AI models are equal.
using the right one for the right task saves time and money.
The key lesson is to treat AI like a disciplined apprentice. Document, check, and plan, and you avoid multiplying mistakes later.
Thank you for teaching this

Great summary. It's so tempting to just trust the LLM to do its job until it comes back to bite you.
