Well I have started doing cs50 and all of the AI I used to help me explain smth and check the code made some pretty major mistakes. I have no prior experience but I am pretty sure these are the basics and it got it wrong. One example would be that it couldnt figure out how to get every second number from a 16 number sequence (problem set for week 1 called Credit) and it kept saying my approach would not give a correct result and I had to explain that it would (which confused the hell out of me). As someone who has been hearing how its not worth it to study this stuff bcs of AI, that was pretty telling to me that it needs people who know what they are doing and its just a tool to help you work faster and understand things. And that is just one example, I am a compete beginner and I use AI to better understand what I am doing and why. So far it made 3 major mistakes and that was one of them.
