And you will have learned nothing in the process. Congratulations, you are now behind your peer who "wasted his time" but actually knows stuff which he can lean on in the future.

This is a wrong take. People learn plenty while using AI. it's how you use it that matters. Same issue happened years ago if you just copied stack overflow without understanding what you were doing.

Its no different now, just the level of effort required to get the code copy is lower.

Whenever I use AI I sit and read and understand every line before pushing. Its not hard. I learn more.
