Does anyone not enjoy using AI for work?
Does anyone else not enjoy using AI for work? Is it just me?
I still prefer being hands on and going through the full process, research, solution-ing, even manually doing all my Figma screen rather than asking AI to do it for me. I feel like every time I try and use any AI, I'm missing out on an opportunity to learn and grow from my tasks, and I don't get the opportunity to learn from defining and solving problems.
Even when doing up the UI, I feel like I'm passing up an opportunity to grow by doing up and polishing it by hand instead of asking an AI to do it for me. I don't want to become over-reliant on it, and I wonder if it's because the fulfilment I get from work is from me actually doing the work, not managing or delegating someone/something to do it for me. I've only found it to be useful in creating interactive prototypes for presentations and review sessions for other teams.
Am I missing something? Am I just not seeing the positive points of using AI or am I just not using it right?
