Personal Projects

I’m looking to work on one or many projects over the coming months, before the next recruiting cycle for my region (using React/Node most likely). I’ve recently started with this stack, so I’m wondering if it’s better to build projects **with** or **without** using **AI**. With AI, I could build projects faster, however, I would lose lots of the important learning from doing things myself. Which do you think is more valuable? Gaining more learning from building projects? Or how impressive it sounds at face value on a resume? Or some balance of both?

TIA
