You can add instructions to not comment, you can also have it explain what it does at every step, not everyone just doesn't care about learning. It can be a very effective teaching tool if you use it that way. 🤷

    AI is a terrible way to learn something. It will do something wrong, explain it incorrectly, and you will have no idea.

    AI is only useful if you are able to spot and correct the mistakes it makes. Because it will make mistakes.

    Very effective teaching tools already exist if you want to learn.

    Someone hasn't done enough debugging in their life. I wish the lesson be as painless as possible

    I'm definitely still a noob but I've done hundreds of hours of debugging on code in the past few months, and my job for the past 8 years is basically to troubleshoot issues, though the past year I got to start doing devops/code work on the side.

    Its fine though, I get why you guys are scared.

    Then you should know that code not working is the absolute easiest fuckup to catch. It's literally not one to be concerned about.

    One in a million chance of an edge case that doesn't throw an error at all, but does something unexpected? Good luck if you don't know how the system works.

    I do and please name a single human written program that doesn't have a fuck up edge case that isn't literally just hello world.

    Neither humans nor AI generally write flawless code

    Neither humans nor AI write flawless code, but if you actually understand how your code works, you'll have a significantly easier time finding that edge case, with or without AI.

    If you only ever let your AI do everything for you, you're at its mercy for debugging.
