Why Spec-Driven Development May Be Counterproductive in AI Coding

Spec-Driven Development (SDD) proposes writing exhaustive specifications before prompting AI, but experts argue it creates cognitive overload, reduces AI's speed and flexibility, and reverts to waterfall-like processes; instead, small iterative prompts that produce runnable code each cycle are recommended for efficient AI-assisted development.
