General consensus in the replies and quotes of this seems to be that the entire concept of "AI skills" is a joke - how hard is typing text into a chatbot, really? I will continue to argue that it's genuinely difficult, and that the challenge in using these tools is widely underestimated

Having worked over the past 9 in a very corporate environment to roll out a chatbot thing, I have a pretty good view into what the median enterprise user does when they're talking to an AI. I'm continuously moving between awe, despair, shock and hilarity at how bad people are at asking questions.

I'd be fascinated to learn more about that - I don't have a very big old intuition at all right now for how non-expert users interact with these tools

We’re rolling out a chatbot that we’ve used ourselves internally to a few customers now. It works 95% of the time for us where, as eng building the product, we know how to precisely form requests. It’s funny how quickly you realise that won’t be the case rolling out externally.

It's hard doing thorough QA when the potential inputs to your tool span every possible combination of words across all human languages!
