When it comes to coding, AI is very good at imagining things that don't exist.
To use it effectively, you have to know more than AI does, so you can call it on it's lies, mistakes, misunderstandings, or whatever term you wish to use.
Time spent in the back-and-forth with AI giving you incorrect advice and you correcting mistakes is roughly equal to the time that you would spend if you just went and looked up an answer to your question in a textbook or tutorial.
There is one forum I know of where the "resident AI" only pops up when requested, and generally gives good, and sometimes humorous, replies based on a summary of posts by real people in the past.
