    I can get why they're mad about it, but the reality is that chatbots are better/easier to learn from than courses and tutorials.

    If I had a question about a new library now, I wouldn't google for a tutorial, I'd just ask ChatGPT.

      This implies that you know which question to ask. If people don't know about accessibility, security etc. How are they able to learn? Also, most people don't use AI to learn but to do it for them.

        That's where books come in. Read them, explain what you're learning to the AI, and what interests you about it, ask for it to check your understanding. Explain your other interests, ask it to suggest other things to read which will bridge the gaps between what you're learning now and the other things you already know.
