AI makes it easier to use new tech without real understanding, but this shortcut can backfire. As a software engineer, I’ve noticed more people skipping foundational concepts, jumping straight to working solutions (often with AI), which leads to fragile and hard-to maintain code.
True learning means breaking things down and understanding basics. Relying solely on AI for quick fixes may seem efficient, but it risks longterm costs for developers and organizations.
Embrace AI, but don’t neglect the fundamentals.
