Yeah I'm not sure why that's controversial.

I have a plethora of books on programming languages. Know what helped me learn it the most? Solving small bugs on open source projects.

If I told an AI to code the solution in the language of choice, I would solve the problem but not truly comprehend the subtleties of why the decision was made. Even when it tells me why it did something, I guarantee you I'd forget about it in a few hours if not by the following day.

An AI doing a code review is one thing I could say would've helped me, but an AI solving the problem I think would've stunted my growth.
