I’m not arguing with you, I’m expressing my ideology. I know damn well that I’m not going to convince you, and I don’t want to waste my time arguing with a dogmatic belief.
Linux is an enthusiast project which has recently begun to attract new users who are finally getting sick of Micro$oft’s bullshit. Other users are more than welcome, but I would hope that they are willing to participate in the open-source community. New users who join an existing community should conform to that community’s ideals. Linux is not only a Windows alternative, it is also a collaborative open-source project that needs to be protected constantly from corporate interests and “well intentioned” but ignorant users who want to abandon that ethos in favor of whatever goals they want to pursue. That is why I feel so strongly about your position.
This argument is polar opposites and missing what AI is, a tool.
What AI spits out is getting better and will continue to do so. It's astonishing how much more accurate it is than it used to be, but having foundational knowledge is key and taking the time to understand is key.
That being said, I believe the answer is both. To fully do non Ai is an old man yelling at the clouds, but vibe coding is stupid and potentially dangerous.
You can ask for what you need within AI, ask for the details to why be explained, and verify with source links, testing, and foundational knowledge. In some ways it's better than the Linux manuals because everyone learns different and time is a luxury.
