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.

The same is true without AI as we have seen a lot of people get into the field for the money and not the love the last decade or so

Those that get lazy and produce low quality output will be pruned like they are today

You can use an LLM as an advanced search engine. The results may vary. Tends to sometimes return hallucinated garbage wasting your time especially for harder queries.

Which are the ones you would want answers to... Everything else is memorized unless you're new.

Usually these things do not have an answer in the search engine either. Or a lousy one like using an insufficiently completed premade library.
