Congratulations, you tried AI and you immediately noticed all the same limitations that everyone else notices. No-one is claiming the technology's perfect.
How many more times is someone going to write this same article?
As many times as “if you’re not using AI your developer career is over” articles come out as well.
For me it's just a beginning. I can do now so much more.
There are still devs who refuse to use the internet and have their assistants print out their email, but they're not the norm
Would you hire someone who refuses to use search or stack overflow for professional coding?
But "reading a book is not the same as letting someone else write one for you". I think that the learning curve from reading docs and forums is not the same as coding with AI. Many will intuitively become lazier, more careless, and dumber, whereas the well-read developer will, in turn, become less and less dependent on external forums.

Do you ask people whether they use search or stack overflow during job interviews/assessments?
