My guess is that when you are self taught and don't know what the hierarchy of technologies looks like, you can learn several advanced technologies without knowing the basic technologies that they are built upon and the challenges the basic tech can't solve.
So you just solve all problems with advanced tools, no matter how simple. You get into tech by learning how to use a chainsaw because it's so powerful and you wanted to cut a tree, now you need to cut some butter for a toast? Chainsaw!

- adithyassekhar 1y agoThis has been my experience as well. But I suspect it'll change with how AI first most students are nowadays.
