Warning: Why AI kills learning

Key Takeaways

Yeah, that's the thing. Just because an AI can do the basics, doesn't mean it should. Because everything you outsource to an AI, that degrades the the likelihood of your brain actually memorizing that knowledge. And I've noticed this with myself. When I use AI to write software projects in technologies I'm not familiar with, I go back later and I don't remember anything about that technology. Cuz the AI was doing it for me, so I wasn't even thinking to think. And I think the important thing is even if someone's already done it, or there's some open-source code, or ChatGPT can do it, do it yourself cuz that will give you the best understanding of the technology. I think that's why a lot of people recommend doing home labs, because there is no better way to learn than be hands-on with a new technology.
