I haven't typed a prompt into Claude for 3 months. I talk to it. What do I mean? I literally voice dictate. And this is what the best of the best are doing because it's like 10 times faster. Andrej Karpathy, co-founder of OpenAI, ran Tesla's AI, uses voice to speak to his code editor. I do the same thing with Claude Code. The setup takes a couple minutes. Install your voice dictation tool of choice. Super Whisperer, Mac Whisperer. I like WhisperFlow. Set a hotkey, hold it down, say what you want, release. What's really great is your words per minute are capped, you could talk 3 to 4 times faster than you can type. And the point is, stop typing, start talking, treat the terminals as staff engineers, communicate well, and you'll never go back. 100x your workflows.
