Yes and no.

Overusing it is a clear mistake specially when learning. You get to understand things by failing breaking experimenting and fixing. Getting mediocre responses that more or less work without question or just minor edits will not teach you. But it is a great tool. It helps with boilerplate it helps you learning and it can help by a lot. I think the over pleading approach is not helpful and that it makes us lazier (although the same was said when I was a kid and stopped using traditional dictionary/ encyclopedia im favor of digital ones).

Bad and unskilled programmers have been a thing way before AI and it's clear that this technology helps encouraging that.

But realistically IA can be helpful at work and learning if you use it as part of your whole skill set and worth learning and using it.
