Comment on Ask HN: Are LLMs useful or harmful when learning to program?

Comments

Someone new to woodworking might not realize a tape measure has a couple modes of operation and if you use it wrong can be off by 1/8". So AI is like a tape measure that could be wrong 50% of the time, depending. You'll need to ask AI to explain itself and validate its own answers. Then if you're new to programming you should independently also be learning things.
