To make this concrete, it takes someone about 4 months to go through a university course.
They might take six courses at a time.
So you are saying that you learned more than 400 times as much content as a university course?
I'm sorry but this just sounds hilarious And unlikely to most people, and it comes off a bit crazy sounding... For example, do you actually think you could even pass a single university course exam on introductory relational algebra without AI I assistance at all?
I think what is more likely is that you feel confident trying to solve problems with AI's help.
That is not learning.
To learn something, it has to be in your brain, not the AI.
Learning is not the same as becoming capable.
There's an ocean of difference between those two
You need to learn the concepts not implementation detail. If you know what is relational algebra and AI teaches you this in hours then you dont need to know the implementation details any longer. If you can borrow intelligence to solve a problem, you should do that. We, the most IT industry is already working in high level languages which is not how the computer works but abstractions over abstractions that very very few people know the entire cycle of a program how it runs. So AI is not a future abstracton, it is already here and its "intelligent" as opposed to other abstractions. Writing code or documentation by hand is gone, its past. All programming languages, framworks are implementation details and AI has already mastered them, we need to now move on to high goals than learning how to write a loop.
