Quoting Matt Webb

Read Original

In this blog post, Matt Webb reflects on his experience after releasing version 1.0 of his app. He anticipated needing to implement rotations manually, so he used ChatGPT not to write code but to educate him. Through an interactive tutoring session, he finally grasped quaternions enough to make the app work, something he hadn't achieved through books or mathematician friends. He notes that outsourcing thinking to AI doesn't stop learning but rather pushes him to learn more. This post touches on AI-assisted learning and its positive impact on personal development within a tech context.
