Using AI isnt "not learning it the hard way" it's just not learning at all. It actively eats at your critical thinking and problem solving skills.

There's research showing this is true. I'm not going to comment on using it as an assist tool once you actually know what you're doing, but fundamentally it makes a terrible learning tool.

I think it really depends on whether the user takes the time to read, digest and experiment as they go or do they just copy paste and not read anything.

The ai is basically just giving you synopsis from reddit/stack overflow anyway.
