Lifted the below quote from In the Face of Tech Kaiju
“Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and Grok don’t just help students write—they train the brain to disengage." Even worse, "Their neural activity remained below baseline, even after AI use was stopped."
It is not hard to generalize this to coding. The more dependent you are on these tools the more damage you are doing to your brain. Some of us aren’t afraid of being left behind by this thing. I for one am afraid of being unable to come back from it if it ends up not working out.
