I don't wanna use AI but want to code!? 😭 (help)
hey! So... I'm a teenager who wants to be a software engineer or Dev when I grow up and I am learning coding online right now, but I have this very specific problem and I was wondering if someone could help me with it. So I hate AI. Specifically gen AI. But I love coding and building stuff. I really want to pursue my interest in coding but every where I look, everyone is using AI for it and I understand that it can be used as a tool, yet I can't get rid if the feeling that it doesn't feel right to use AI. Not that its "cheating" or something, I just hate AI because of how much pollution it causes, water requirements to cool it down, also open AI being the biggest donator of the war, the ethical dilemmas that come with it and so much more... So I'm really confused on what sort of decision to take right now. I have quit the use if AI entirely for months now and it feels wrong to have to use it again later.
Help plz 😭
