Hi, I want to understand how you guys learn new things in the age of AI? I am a software engineer relatively new to the industry ~5 YOE. I am trying to learn new things in my job but since we use so much AI for programming and stuff, I feel that I might not be learning as much as I would have if AI did not exist.
I cannot stop using AI since it does make few things easier, and also my company keeps watch if someone is not using enough tokens. On other hand I also dont want to fall behind on my task deadlines by doing things old school way.
Is there any way to get better at workplace in this situation? I just want to get really, really good in my domain.
Well, specialist books are still around. We can always read a textbook on advanced digital signal processing. Or concepts in some programming language, written by the authors of XY themselves… Though… Practice makes perfect. It’s gonna be hard to remember a book worth of information, without exercise. Or properly improve without trying to apply it and make a few mistakes yourself in the process.
thanks, that does make sense. Will try it.
