Yes. I love using AI for the “where do I even start” type questions. The once I’ve had a discussion about various approaches I know what docs to actually look at and I can start thinking about implementation details. I don’t find AI very useful for generating code (weird position I know).
Why weird? I share this position.
The LLMs have been trained on countless introductory tutorials for most popular topics, so they will provide you with a reasonable one.
Ad and friction free for now.
Enjoy it while it lasts.
This is also how I use LLMs at work. I have some vague worries because I'm told this is outdated, I'm falling behind, etc. I'm doing it this way in part hecause my employer is a big, old, slow company and experienting with other kinds of "AI" tools is virtually impossible. But I think it's really more my style.
