This article hits really close to home for me. I have just recently started doing CTFs and feel like I am already a somewhat decent intermediate player. Much of the motivation for me is learning but also comparing/succeeding vs. my peers.

Asking AI for learning / explaining purposes is absolutely fine in my book - but I have absolutely no motivation to set up AI to solve challenges. Without AI you can't really compete successfully. So AI is really taking motivation away for me which in turn again prevents me from learning more. I am not sure that this is solvable.
