Avoiding Bad Habits: Keeping Your AI Puppy on Track
Even the smartest puppy can pick up bad habits if we don’t guide it well. Your AI Puppy—just like a real furry friend—needs consistent training, boundaries, and a watchful eye to make sure it stays helpful, accurate, and fun to work with.
When you’re first getting to know your AI Puppy, it’s easy to let little quirks slide. But those quirks can turn into patterns that slow you down or cause problems later. The good news? A little awareness and a few simple habits can keep your AI on track for long-term success.
Common Mistakes People Make with AI
1. Over-Reliance
It’s tempting to let your AI handle everything, but that’s like expecting your dog to plan the family vacation. AI is powerful, but it works best when it’s part of a partnership—your ideas, its support. Use it to enhance your thinking, not replace it.
2. Skipping the Fact-Check
Your AI Puppy can be incredibly convincing, even when it’s wrong. That’s why fact-checking is a non-negotiable step—especially for stats, references, or anything that could affect your credibility. A quick Google search or source verification can save you from spreading misinformation.
Spotting “Hallucinations” in Your AI Puppy
In AI terms, a hallucination is when the AI invents information that sounds right but isn’t.
Signs your AI might be hallucinating include:
- Providing detailed answers without credible sources
- Sharing links that lead nowhere or are unrelated
- Giving “facts” that can’t be verified anywhere else
If something feels off, pause and double-check. Your instincts matter just as much as the AI’s output.
Why You Need an AI Training Log
The best way to keep your AI Puppy well-trained? Keep a training log. Think of it as your own AI playbook—a place to record:
- The exact prompts that got great results
- What those results looked like
- Any tweaks you made that improved them
Over time, you’ll have a go-to list of “best commands” that save time and deliver consistent quality.
Balancing Productivity and Creativity
AI can boost your output, but too much can lead to burnout—or stale creativity. Schedule time to create without it. Write in your own voice, brainstorm on paper, or have a conversation without a screen in sight. This keeps your ideas fresh and your mind sharp.
