You are using "script-kiddy" as an ad hominem rather than making an argument with proper justification. "script-kiddy" refers to website vandalism and cracking. That has nothing to do with using AI to learn what rev-parse does.
Learning about `git rev-parse` through documentation and learning about `git rev-parse` through AI fundamentally have the same outcome at the end of the day: you have learned how to use `git rev-parse`.
I’m using it as a pejorative (not an ad hominem) for people who blindly trust unknown code because they don’t have any real understanding. It’s a shortcut for a whole, well-known and obvious argument about the danger of playing with things being your understanding.
If you are using AI to learn, understand, and verify what it spit out, by definition, you aren’t a script kiddy. My argument was about how you use AI rather than a commentary on if you should.
It is an ad hominem. "you shouldn't be turning into a script-kiddy" is guilt by association, see Wikipedia[1] or ask AI[2]. If you think that learning from AI is dangerous you should articulate why you think that. I find it neither "well-known" or "obvious".
