I pulled 1,427 of my own prompts from six weeks with AI.

I meant to see "how did my way of asking change."

The sharpest thing wasn't the capability curve — it was that the curve and how I saw myself were a full tier apart.

Six months ago I wrote a piece called "Three Months, 1,604 Prompts: What Did AI Trade With Me?" That time I scanned "what I handle most." This time I wanted to look at something uglier: how do I ask — and did it change over six months?

I pulled every prompt I typed myself between June 15 and July 23 — 1,427 of them (stripping tool outputs, system messages, the fat-fingered interrupts) — cut them into six time windows, and measured them window by window.
