In this demo, Thierry Damiba, Developer Advocate at @qdrant shows how vague AI coding prompts can lead to disastrous outcomes like a pricing algorithm that endlessly lowers product prices to $1. He emphasizes that AI tools, such as Cursor, follow instructions literally and lack business context or judgment. Through real examples and fixes, he illustrates the need for human oversight, including setting pricing floors, verifying generated code, and maintaining domain expertise. His key takeaway: AI can accelerate development, but without proper guardrails and understanding, it can just as easily amplify costly mistakes.
