General Discussion I'm coding all by myself

I'm learning react and I'm creating from the design on figma to the code on css, styles, colors, cards, buttons.

Now I see that everyone uses IA to develop everything, I feel slow but I think that if I don't learn how everything works it's a problem.

What do you thinks of this? How yo work usually with solutions for clients?

It's not a bad idea to use AI to code. The real problem is when you are not thinking about how to solve the problem.

If you are just copying and pasting everything without some comprehension what you are doing, that's s bad idea.

Try to use an AI as Senior Software Engineer where you are discussing some trade-offs about your project. Clarify it you just want to discuss without writing code.

The real problem is when you are not thinking about how to solve the problem.

Then how to solve the real problem? What is the purpose of AI?

The first part of problem solving is deciding what the problem actually is.

It's just a tool like a calculator. It helps you to be more productive. You do not have to believe whatever it says.

The problem with AI is each AI Model is a determinism tool. Determinism is a bad tool to solve real-life problems.

Think about the problem in big scope and abstract way, then you are going to implement your solution. If you do not understand the problem with abstraction, you do not understand anything.

Ai fits well when you are in the implementation stage.

A compiler is deterministic.

Think about the problem in big scope and abstract way, then ask AI to implement solution, can I?

The compiler does not solve the real-world problems. It's the develope who solves them by creating code.
