How Are You Using GitHub Copilot or AI Tools in Your Learning?

[abhi478jeetur-rgb]

AI tools like GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, and others are everywhere now, but everyone seems to use them differently. Some people rely on them heavily, others are still not sure when or how to use them safely.
I’d love to hear: How are you using AI tools in your coding or learning right now?
For example:

Do you use Copilot just for autocomplete, or also for writing whole functions?

Do you ask AI to explain code you don’t understand?

Have AI tools ever confused you or given you bad suggestions?

How do you make sure you still learn and don’t just copy–paste everything?

Please share both the good and bad parts of your experience:
