I have been doing Object Oriented Programming for 25 years, but am now learning a new framework that uses a functional language. So, while I have lots of experience with code, I'm very new to this paradigm.

I thought that AI could help me learn it and have tried a variety of approaches. I have found that it is just absolute crap. It is worse than hype, it lies about what you are able to do. I spent a day with ChatGPT trying to figure out how to resize a browser window in a feature test until it finally told me after hours of confident explanation, that it is impossible to do at the moment. Um, that would have been great information to have 8 hours ago!

Not only does it lie to you, but AI slop is literally destroying the Internet. Please do not try to learn software development from AI. There are plenty of great ways to learn. Maybe your experience is or will be different, but I value my time and AI does nothing but waste mine.
