Perfection takes time, and so does an LLM while it thinks and comes up with the perfect solution for our prompts. During this time, what must a developer do? I strongly discourage working on multiple tasks at once because, unlike LLMs, we don’t have a huge context window, and switching between tasks may affect the quality of prompts and our ability to make decisions about whether to keep or discard the generated code.

So, while the magic happens, here are some activities that a developer could do:

• make coffee
• play small games
• stare at screen
