How to AI programming?#
There are many ways to learn how to write computer programs. It is possible to become a self-taught programmer by exploring the wealth of programming content online. Following a structured course provides a guided learning experience, but it can still be beneficial to seek additional information. For this purpose, you can also use AI-assisted tools, chatbots, like ChatGPT, Copilot, or Gemini.
When using chatbots, remember to ask questions that support your learning. Simply obtaining a solution from a chatbot will not teach you much unless you ensure that you are familiar with all the programming concepts used in the solution and understand how the solution is constructed.
It is therefore a good idea to provide good context information when using chatbot. State that you are taking an introductory course in programming, and list the topics that we have covered so far. Ask for a simple solution and for an explanation of every line of code. Make sure to analyze and test all code you might receive from chatbot.
