Using AI Without Disappearing
AI can help draft scripts, explain errors, generate tests, and connect APIs. The challenge is to stay involved enough to understand what the code is doing and why it works.
Things To Explore
- Ask AI to explain Python errors in plain language.
- Use AI to sketch a first draft, then edit it by hand.
- Call APIs from Python and inspect the returned data.
- Write tests so generated code has to prove itself.
Mini mission: Ask an AI assistant for a Python script idea, build the smallest version, then write a note explaining every line you kept.
