Claude asked me a question today: was I looking for an Emacs plugin (because I was talking about elisp) or a Rust program (because I have configured Rust preferences)?

I'm really impressed, it's rare to see LLMs ask follow-up questions.

(I wanted Emacs in this case.)

Follow

@wilfredh They usually do follow-ups, but in some lame way.

But to ask for clarification is rare indeed. They should do this more instead of smugly answering the wrong question.

@dpwiz Here's the relevant part of the transcript if you're interested: gist.github.com/Wilfred/9c59c0

It took a few iterations to get a final result I was happy with, but the initial implementation was nice for minor mode boilerplate.
