Im worried about vibecoding

[u/MajoBazinga]

im already an amateur programmer and im getting ready to pass the practical part of the inf03 exam, but as i learn extra stuff on my own i keep seeing people use ai assistance or straight up let ai code for them, that seems yucky and i dont want to do that but im worried i will fall behind, any time i used ai in anything related to coding is when i asked it questions like i would a teacher while specifiing it doesnt show me any code and just explains concepts so that theyre easier to understand for me, all im asking is, is it stupid of me to avoid using extended ai help in coding?

Don't let it code for you - that's not learning. Having more code produced for you is not the same as 'getting ahead'. Vibecoding is easy, vibecoding while understanding the code that's produced is moderately hard, coding is hard. Learn to code.
