But troubleshooting prompts?

That’s just debugging in a different form.

What’s your background that helps you use AI smarter?

When you understand how code was written before AI existed—structured, logical, step-by-step—you develop a mindset for clear, precise instructions.

Most people who struggle with prompting come from vague or fragmented queries.

that would be a big deal.

imagine now i can truly build a PKM and then use it as context with the Assistant.

technically it might be possible as Private LLM allows Intel Macs to download DS R1.

You have 3.

That's if you use @craft.do.

DeepSeek R1 on a local is THE thing.

PS: btw, are we able to "add" a few documents within the space to the Assistant as context? Or is the Assistant only good for editing, etc.
