Pro tip: my coworker's AI prompt advice backfired hilariously at 2AM

Last Tuesday I was stuck on a data cleaning script and my coworker Dave swore that asking the AI to 'think step by step' would fix everything. So I pasted that into the chat and it gave me a 40 line response about ethical considerations of sorting timestamps. Then it decided to rewrite my entire function as poetry about spreadsheets. The actual fix was just adding 'use pandas' to the prompt, which Dave could've mentioned in 5 seconds. Has anyone else had an AI completely derail when you follow bad advice verbatim?
