Ever feel like your AI chat is spiraling into nonsense?

I do… regularly!

I was deep in a coding session yesterday when it started spewing gibberish.

Frustrating, right? But here's the thing - you don't have to start over from scratch.

Most AI interfaces offer ways to course-correct mid-conversation:

• Look for a pencil icon under your messages. Clicking it lets you edit and redirect.
• Using a pair programming tool like Aider? Try the "/undo" command to rewind.
• Some advanced UIs allow you to "fork" conversations, creating a safe branch to explore.

Think of it like an "undo" button for your AI interactions. By spotting and using these features, you can keep your AI conversations productive and on-track.

Next time you hit an AI dead-end, try backing up instead of starting over. You might be surprised how quickly you can get back on course.

What's your go-to tactic when an AI conversation goes sideways?
