> I wouldn't consider asking the AI to do something I don't know how to do My experience has been the opposite so far. I benefit much more from such tools when I can easily check if something works correctly and would have to learn/look up a lot of easy and elementary stuff to do it from scratch. For example, adding to some existing code in a language I don't know and don't have time or need to learn (I guess not many people are often in that situation). I get a lot of hints for what methods and libraries are available, I don't have to know the language syntax, for easy few-line snippets (that do standard things and which I can test separately) the first solution usually just works. This is deliberately passing on an opportunity for deeper and faster learning, which is a bad idea in general, but sometimes the speed trade-off is worth it. On the other hand, for problems where I know how to solve them, getting some model to generate the solution I want (or at least one I'm happy with) tends to be more work than just doing it myself. I probably could improve a lot in how I use the available tools. Haven't had that much opportunity yet to play with them...
