How do you use AI code completion when learning new tech? Besically, when I tried learning something new(like now i am trying to learn CMP), I end up copying and pasting from copilot to codebase. I had a course on C from my college and back then, AI was not popular. I really understood each concept from that. How can I follow that same procedure to learn android and kotlin? Sorry for the long post, but I need guidance.

Turn off AI code completion and don't use AI?

don’t use AI code generation while learning, focus on mastering the fundamentals and have ai maybe explain or breakdown the concepts for you if you feel like your struggling with it, you need to write the code yourself at first to fully understand it.

Will try turning off Ai code completion. Another solution I found is to do a project by watching tutorial from end to end. I will be turning off AI for next project while following tutorial. Thank you all.

Copilot is very dangerous for learning in this step ,you need be aware of this . Acts like a "know-it-all "
