Five Diagnostic Checks

Think of a recent AI-assisted session. For each diagnostic, answer honestly: did you do this?

Briefly describe what you were working on with the AI. This helps contextualize your results.

Did you write a specification, plan, or clear requirements before asking the AI to generate output?

Yes — I wrote requirements first No — I went straight to prompting

Did you read and understand every line of the AI’s output before using it?

Yes — I reviewed everything No — I skimmed or accepted without reading

Could you explain what the output does to a colleague without referencing the AI?

Yes — I fully understand it No — I’d need to re-read or ask the AI

Did you test the output against known-good behavior or acceptance criteria?

Yes — I verified it works correctly No — I assumed it was correct

Did you give the AI at least one round of structured feedback to improve the output?

Yes — I gave specific feedback and iterated No — I used the first output or started over
