Debugging in the Age of LLMs

Using AI as a rubber duck on steroids. A new approach to finding bugs.

AIDebuggingDeveloper Tools

Debugging used to mean hours of console.log and StackOverflow. Today, it means conversing with an AI.

The 'Error-to-Insight' Loop

When you hit an error, don't just paste it into an AI. Describe what you've already tried and provide the relevant code snippets. Ask the AI to 'explain the root cause' rather than just 'fix it'.

By understanding the fix, you prevent the same bug from reappearing, truly leveling up your skills.
