The Fish Whisperers

Neither the operator nor his business partner knew what the fix should look like — or how to find out and trust the answer once they had it. That second problem was the real one. I ran the diagnosis across four AI models, using each to test and challenge the others' reasoning until the solution held up under scrutiny. Five earlier proposals looked plausible and were wrong — each missed part of the actual specification. The answer that survived was a single interface showing all twenty-one time-and-location combinations alongside that day's tide times and heights: an Acuity Scheduling build with tide data loaded in as a dummy staff member, paired with a custom app for on-the-go booking. I hadn't used Acuity or built a custom app before. With AI as a constant working partner through build and testing, it went from concept to an approved, working system.
