A way to create finished, bug-free programs without human intervention

Users of Claude Code, Anthropic’s software-writing AI system, recently discovered a way to create finished, bug-free programs without human intervention. The trick: Write a small program that asks the AI, over and over again, to improve the code it has already written. Named the Ralph Wiggum technique, after the dimwitted but persistently optimistic “Simpsons” character, this simple trick is effective at forcing Claude Code to solve problems on its own. - Wall Street Journal
