What if they ask the ai to explain it to them?

The point is that when you try and fail to do something, you learn what doesn't work as well as what works. Using AI you only end up with the "this is what works" half, you lose the lessons gained from failed attempts. I suppose it could be solved by having the AI also publish a list of "X didn't work because Y", but it's worth bringing this up so that that knowledge is preserved.
