Someone experienced with a good collection of snippets in their IDE/editor has greater efficiency as someone without experience who augments their coding skills with a machine learning model. 5 years will not make too much of a difference. The failed quest for self-driving cars have shown the hubris of AI researchers. I don't think self-programming IDEs will fare any better.
Some advice: your best bet is to just build things. They don't have to be big projects, just build stuff, solve problems. Sometimes the best projects are ones that solve a personal problem you're facing.
Have fun, be kind to yourself and others and stay curious 🙌
There are usually snippet collections for most IDEs and languages available. Take them as a starting point and mix and match whatever becomes most helpful to you.

Hey new dev student here. Any tips or resources on building a collection of snippets?
And you make a good point

In 1987 this was the direction of AI research: Programmer's Apprentice and the snippets were called “Clichés”.
