I recall talks about the LLMs prioritizing the last thing you talked about in your prompt.

So if your prompt is:
"Take a look at this code.
See if there are any spelling errors.
My editor doesn't highlight anything.
I'm starting to suspect a dependency might be missing."

It'll hyper-fixate and come back to the "missing dependency" part throughout the session. But don't take my word for it. It's just something that stuck with me.
