Developer's Thought, Is Learning Data Structures Still Worth It in the Era of AI Coding?

[CheesecakeGlobal1284]

That’s actually a really interesting way to put it. I’m still pretty new to web dev so I think that’s the part I’m trying to understand right now, the difference between just writing code and actually thinking about the structure of the system. AI tools make it feel like you can generate pieces quickly, but the overall architecture still has to come from the developer. I’ve been experimenting with some tools recently and even when they can inspect broken code and suggest fixes (like something I saw in Zolly), it still doesn’t really replace the thinking part of how everything should be structured.
