Mistake
Don't Outsource the Final Judgement
The mistake of letting Claude make the call rather than inform it — shipping its output because it seems reasonable, without the review and judgement that the decision actually needs. The model is there to draft, analyse, and pressure-test; the decision and the accountability stay with you.
Mistake
Don't Trust Confident Specifics Without Checking
The mistake of taking Claude's most confident-sounding specifics — exact figures, quotes, citations, API names, legal or medical claims — at face value because the fluent, assured tone reads as authority. Confidence is a property of the prose, not evidence the fact is right.
