Stop letting AI write your Python scripts or you’ll stay a script kiddie forever

[ееп7фы]

Seriously, every time I see someone paste GPT code for a bot without reading it, I cringe. You’re gonna be totally screwed when things break on mainnet if you don't understand the logic. Put in the hours to learn the stack or you’ll never make it.

I don't think the OP is entirely wrong, but also don't think they're entirely right. While AI tools can be helpful for beginners, they can also hinder skill growth if over-relied on. Learning to write Python scripts yourself has its own value and is still a great way to develop problem-solving skills.

Facts, if you can't debug the spaghetti code the AI spits out, you're actually ngmi. It's a multiplier for speed, not a replacement for knowing how to code.

I don't think it's that black and white, AI tools can be super helpful for automating repetitive tasks or doing data analysis, but you're right that relying solely on them can limit your understanding of how things work under the hood. I mean, what's wrong with getting some help from AI and then actually taking the time to learn and optimize yourself?

Real talk, if you can’t audit the code the AI spits out, you’re gonna get wrecked when it finally hallucinates. Use it to speed up the grunt work, but don’t skip learning the basics or you’ll be useless when things break.

I kinda agree with the OP, relying too much on AI for coding can hold you back from really understanding the fundamentals. That being said, AI tools can still be super helpful for learning and automating routine tasks, so it's all about finding a balance. If you're just copying and pasting AI-generated code without trying to comprehend it, you're definitely missing out on the learning experience.

Facts, you’re gonna be cooked if you can’t debug the spaghetti AI gives you when things break. Use it to speed up but don't let it rot your brain.

I don't think it's about being a script kiddie, it's about being efficient and learning the fundamentals of coding. I use auto-generated scripts as a starting point to learn from and then improve upon, it's not a replacement for understanding how things work. That being said, I do think AI-assisted coding has its place, especially for big projects or tedious tasks.

Fr, you gotta learn the basics or you’ll get absolutely rekt when the AI hallucinates. Use it to speed up the boring stuff, just don't let it think for you.
