I love this... It's so true. At work they're pushing us to explore AI and see what it can do. Which is cool... it's a great help... but.... like you said, now I feel more like a reviewer than a coder.

One of the best things I've done with AI is tell it to NOT do the work, but teach me how to do it. I tell it specifically to not give code other than small examples and to ask leading questions that help me work through the problem.

Sadly, even then sometimes I get to the point where I'm struggling and I just end up telling it "Give me the answer already!" rather than solving it all the time, but for the most part I'm actually learning from it rather than relying on it to do my work.

I'll share this article with my team at work. Thanks!

Hey Jon, thanks for the feedback, glad you liked it! I think your point about using it as a tool for learning is really important - using it to help us improve rather than replacing us.
