Using AI Generated Code Will Make You a Bad Programmer

Relying too heavily on AI for code generation can erode core programming skills, turning devs into copy-paste experts instead of thoughtful builders.

⦁ AI tools like Copilot spit out quick fixes, but they often produce bloated, insecure code that ignores edge cases and best practices.
⦁ Over time, devs skip learning fundamentals, leading to unmaintainable projects riddled with subtle bugs from unvetted AI outputs.
⦁ It fosters laziness: Why understand algorithms when AI handles it? This hurts debugging and innovation in real-world scenarios.
⦁ Privacy risks loom large—AI ingests your code, potentially leaking proprietary logic without you realizing.
⦁ Balance is key: Use AI for boilerplate, but always review and refactor to build true expertise.
