How to not rely on code
I started coding about a year ago and fell in love with it. I found a 12 month in person course that teaches me different languages as well as work readiness for code by putting us in mock work environments. In the beginning I would jot down what I learnt and applied it to what exercises were given to me . Soon I realised the pacing was a bit much and it messed up my learning so I relied on AI to debug and give me notes for resources I did not know where to look for when I went wrong-I was still denying wanting to use AI at that point still for all my work only when really needed.
After doing projects such as e-commerce and being put into a work environment that gives us a brief to complete in 4 week with a roadblock I realised not only me but my whole team relied on AI when we were not meeting deadlines we created for that 4 weeks . I am now put into a smaller team and redoing the same briefs that we used for the working Sims but I realised it made me rely too much on AI . How do I take away this reliance on AI and go back to what I did before on just learning and doing it like how I use to .
Tl;dr : Working simulation deadlines as well as not knowing where to go for resources made me rely to much on AI for work and I want to change that and go back to how I was before.

What do you mean rely on code? You mean rely on AI?
