Using AI to learn and develop.
When using AI to learn and develop, it tends to speed up the process. In many cases, that is great. Particularly, if you understand what the AI delivers as a solution.
However, we think it is also good to learn how to perform certain tasks from scratch. This can help embed knowledge and information in your brain better.
Currently, we use automation in our projects. In future projects, we may incorporate AI functionality.
If we ever use AI in our work, then you will definitely see a note in the project.
