> I used ChatGPT to teach me python. I can imagine that if you don't know how to program, ChatGPT will be a nice teacher. But I think that there is a difference between learning how to program and using AI as an experienced developer. I have been coding for almost 25 years. When ChatGPT gives me a snippet in some language, I don't really need to read every word carefully before I get an intuition about whether or not it makes sense. When it gives me a good snippet, I honestly don't really have to read it entirely: I can just skim through it and tune it. I am not making the effort of programming, I am rather making the effort of reviewing. And as we all know it's easy to make a "lazy review". I think there is a difference between your situation and mine. It's great if ChatGPT helps you learn, but in my case I really think it makes me more productive by preventing me from improving myself, because improving takes time. Somehow ChatGPT is optimising away my learning time, if that makes sense.
