I know this isn’t going to be popular here, but I do really worry that people who take this approach will end up hamstringing their opportunities in life.

I agree that AI is over hyped, easily misused and being forced into things it’s not necessarily very helpful for…but that’s also what it was like when the internet came around.

I think people would be wise to familiarise themselves with the tools available if only to hedge their bets…you can’t find a software engineering job right now that doesn’t want experience with AI tools, and if it’s as successful as many think it will be - you will find most jobs will expect proficiency with AI in the same way they expect proficiency with computers.
