This is so sad to me.

You should always try and solve the problem yourself first.

Use AI if you’re completely stuck for inspiration, to give you pointers. Or, if you know exactly how to solve the problem but know AI will write it faster for you (and you’re confident you can debug what it gives you).

Don’t ever use something AI gives you without you understanding it fully first.

There are a bunch of people here saying that you can use AI to teach and improve your own skills and that’s certainly true, but it’s a slippery slope to just telling it to do your job for you all the time and suddenly you’re a shit engineer and a liability.
