I'm a junior dev that has been on the job for ~6 months. I found AI to be useful for learning when I had to make an application in Swift and had zero experience of the language. It presented me with some turd responses, but from this it gave me the idea of what to try and what to look into to find answers.

I find that sometimes AI can present a concept to me in a way I can understand, where blogs can fail. I'm not worried about AI right now, it's a tool to make our jobs easier!

Yeah our latest group of juniors were able to get up to speed very quickly.
