Generally speaking, you should use whatever tools you have at your disposal to complete your tasks in a time efficient and quality manner. However, as a beginner, I would recommend caution with using AI for a few key reasons:

  • Chances are, you will be prohibited from using AI tools during an interview, so you need to be able to pass those competency tests on your own.
  • AI tends to be multi-tenant, meaning multiple users share the same AI instance. This has caused some companies to have reservations about the use of AI, as their proprietary information could be accidentally leaked to other tenants (companies) on the instance.
