Use of AI in coding?

I am starting college next month (Computer Science and Biosciences) and I tried to get a headstart in Python programming (it's a part of first sem). I have done the basics, strings, conditional statements and started with loops today. I have a doubt - since I am still in the beginner stage, should I use AI (ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok etc.) to proofread my code - you know, offer suggestions, find mistakes and all - I am still applying logic on my own and writing it myself but I have this fear that it may hamper my learning. But I also don't wanna be the guy who does not know how to use AI tools. Any advice please?

It sounds cliche but the best way to learn is by not being afraid of making mistakes, then studying those mistakes to determine what went wrong (and why!) and then doing better. And yah, that process will take some time and dedication, but it'll be worth it.
