I do not think your example is at all fair. You can definitely learn from the way AI solves a math question.

Challenge: learn some math from AI. Sleep on it. Duplicate it on paper the next day.

You might pick up tips the same way watching a workout video could give you tips. But it means nothing until you physically put it in to practice.

Not really, you might understand it in the moment, but to learn something you need to do actual work. An example is, watch a thousand hours on photography, how to take great photos. Go out and try to take great photos, you will fail. This is why all serious tutors keep saying ”stop watching and go out and take photos, every day, all the time”. I don’t know Rust, but I can understand AI outputting some Rust code if I ask it to. Two days later I won’t be able to write it again.
