I think the conclusions and the advice for new programmers is valid. The comparison with the FSD is not very relevant in my opinion but it may be, I just don't see it, as it is a very different kind of skill. I would separate the preference from the "objective truth" and your goals. I think as a technologist you need to keep using AI if not for any other reason then only to keep up with the progress of the technology and have a first hand experience. For projects that I mainly do to learn, I disable autocompletion (Cursor) and type every single character by hand. For some other projects where I am more interested in the end result I am allowing autocompletion and most of the time I read and make sure I understand the generated code.
