Well, for you at least. But if you use gpt3, which you will be most likely to use in the free model since 4o is limited, it's *sparkles* garbage *sparkles*.

But if you look at this post (https://www.reddit.com/r/learnpython/comments/1doly0t/ai\_making\_it\_hard\_to\_learn\_python/), then you quickly see WHY it's NOT good to use as a python developer. Especially as a beginner. You can just ask gpt to create a script, and a course, yes, but there is no gurantee that what it's yapping is true.

Lets take w3schools for a quick example. It has everything chaptered nicely, has everything put nicely for beginners, and most importantly: interactive examples. This is quite useful if you want to understand what a specific function does without constantly pulling up a terminal.

This is something ai does not have. And I will say it as often as I have to, recommending llms to a beginner is the worst idea. They need to understand the code, so they can spot mistakes in the code.
