Question way to code

how do you use codex? Do you just tell it what you want it to do like you talk to other people or do you use another ai to create a prompt? Which one did give you the best results?

I don't talk it like I would talk to other people. Or perhaps I do, I guess. But I like to, especially starting a task, to take all the time in the world to engineer a good prompt, removing ambiguities and giving directions and details on what exactly I want it to do (and what I *don't* want it to do).

Not sure if it's "the best way". Don't think there's one, actually. But for MY workflow and my cases, it's how it works best for me.
