19:18The New AI prompting Method Everyone Is Talking About: Loops (And How To Use Them)
A from scratch explanation of loop engineering, the method where you set a goal once and AI agents prompt themselves through discovery, planning, parallel execution, and verification, iterating until the goal is met with memory stored outside the chat. Upgraded contrasts the slow old prompt and wait pattern with the new loop, distinguishes open loops (broad, token hungry) from closed loops (bounded, recommended), and builds a live three agent system in Claude Code that grows a fictional pickleball store with a shareable quiz, a content scout, and a growth marketing agent under an orchestrator. It reproduces every prompt used and closes with four everyday scenarios (freelancer, student, shop owner, YouTube creator) reworked as loops, plus an honest note that a human still owns the goal and the final call.
