I have learned
so much about SQL databases and playwright tests and python and all sorts of things that were completely opaque to me (but are quite useful for my day job) before I started using AI tools.
And a lot of these skills I've picked up would be usable even if I didn't have AI for handholding anymore. It definitely feels like I have the dedicated attention of a junior developer helping me learn moreso than someone taking over my work and leaving me out in the metaphorical cold in terms of intellectual growth.
