i think using assistive tools like chatgpt are helpful _after_ you put in the work to learn the fundamentals. tools like this can be a crutch that inhibits your ability to think bigger and expand your horizons.i would also recommend learning how to use search engines more effectively to avoid being supplied only one "side" of an answer. stackoverflow is a great example of this; i've found that the second or third answer is (somehow) usually the best one.

that said, i dont use gpt or llm's, so take my opinion for the two milli-cents that its worth!
