Comment on I created my first AI-assisted pull request

I didn’t learn anything. I felt like I was flinging slop over the wall to an open-source maintainer.

Well I’m sorry you feel that way, impostor syndrome is tough to deal with already without AI.

You seem to be driven by understanding and you have a great tool to learn from here if you make an effort over time to grasp the “slop” you’re throwing to the wall. Be curious, ask why several times and explore guilt free over time when you are in the right mindset.

I’m glad you got something useful out of it this time and also not everything you do with AI has to be useful or a final “deliverable”, it can also be a great toy and window into more understanding.
