I think it's a pretty small generosity to implicitly extend what the author is saying to "you will learn better without generating your code". I don't know if that's what they meant, but AI is certainly a good tool for learning how things work and seeing examples (if you don't blindly trust everything it says and use other sources too).
That's fair. I also just noticed that the sentence before the bit I quoted is important:
> AI overuse hurts you:
> - if you’re doing this for your own learning: you will learn better without AI.
So they're calling out "AI overuse", and I agree with that - that's where the skill comes in of deciding how to use AI to help your learning in a way that doesn't damage that learning process.
