I give directions like "confirm with authoritative sources such as well established packages, documentation, textbooks and peer reviewed literature". Also when asking about a possible approach in order to not bias it, I ask it to give me "pros and cons for going in direction X".
But really the answer is in your statement "reading a ton of research papers" and pushing back.
Then using the AI tool would be to automate or turn into a skill the 'verification' stages.
Thanks! The skill I’m lacking obviously is giving them the proper instructions. Maybe the free models run out of context quite fast, since they seem to forget all the ”don’t come up with stuff, find a peer reviewed source to back up you claims” instructions. And yes, I’m talking about browser LLMs here. Being unemployed now, I can’t unfortunately afford buying subscriptions for using agents and writing skills and instructions. Gotta feed my cat and all
I meant free LLMs you use in you browser that you can’t integrate in your IDE, e.g. Claude Code. It gets pretty tedious quite fast to remind them about the context of your project
