> better learning tool than a book

Learning for what? That day when you write it yourself, that will never come ...

There is only so much you can learn by reading; it requires doing.

The good thing about traditional sources like books, tutorials and other people's code bases is that they give you something, but don't write your project for you.

Now you can be making a project, yet be indefinitely procrastinating the learn-by-doing part.

For the enjoyment, and producing better products, faster?

Why were you learning, before AI tools?

I've always been learning by doing, in the course of making things, in order to keep making, with only a small fraction of looking at what others have done.
