It's a hard question to answer and one I've been mindful of in using LLMs as tutoring aids for my own learning purposes. Like everything else around LLM usage, it probably comes down to careful prompting... I really don't want the answer right away. I want to propose my own thoughts and carefully break them down with the LLM. Claude is pretty good at this.

"productive struggle" is essential, I think, and it's hard to tease that out of models that are designed to be as immediately helpful as possible.
