The story so far

Alex Albert shared a prompt he runs across all his projects when a new model comes out: ask the model to find broken, inconsistent, inefficient, or unnecessary parts, fix what it can determine confidently, and list the rest for review. He recommends trying it. Baoyu says a new model release is a good opportunity to clean up and simplify prompts, provided you plan to keep using the new model. He recommends using Albert’s prompt for that review.
