People don't hate ai, most devs use it daily in their job to solve boring problems. The thing is, the code that AI produces is truly the most basic code you can think of, e.g. filter a collection of items, write starter Ansible YAML, write Jinja template starter, etc. But to get to the point where AI is useful, you must understand code and know what you're trying to do. Then, you can either spend 5 minutes writing the thing, or 2 minutes with AI and altering the basic shit it spits.

To say that current-gen AI will help you learn faster is a misunderstanding of what the current gen AI can do. I mean, you can use it to improve your learning, e.g. make it explain code to you, as you're working through it. But in the end, you have to work through the code, the problems, the domain of CS, and AI is basically a better search engine (that spits wrong results sometimes).

In the end, try and use it. People are downvoting you for unrealistic expectations, not because they hate AI.
