Ask HN: Do AI coding tools make you a worse programmer?
I am concerned about how often I turn to AI to do things I used to both enjoy and know how to do before.

I am writing this question as I found myself pretty much implementing a small POC using only prompting in cursor.

I am concerned this way of working is making my mind lazy, and in general that prolonged usage will make me a terrible programmer.

Does anyone else share these concerns?
