You Probably Don’t Need an AI Coding Course

Recently I’ve seen many blog posts and videos about AI coding workflows — how people build them, how productive they are, and often a mention that a course is available (or coming soon) to teach the same system. I think it’s great that people share their knowledge and experience with fellow developers. At the same time, I believe much of this knowledge is not that hard to obtain on your own, especially given how powerful modern AI tools are for learning. Before buying a course, it may be worth trying to explore the topic yourself first. My approach When I want to quickly understand a new topic, I often use a “Fisherman’s prompt” — a prompt template designed to generate structured learning paths. You can find the template here: https://gist.github.com/disler/cad56b41fb614a4e394f7b719bca5273 (There is a lot of great material in that repository.) For example, here is a prompt I used to explore AI-augmented coding workflows: I'm a Senior software Engineer and I want to learn AI augmented c
