I'm on year two of my journey to become a game developer, i am focusing on programming and if i realize i don´t want to work with games in the future at least i have solid knowledge on how to deal with a broad area of software problems.

I don´t rely on ChatGPT to write any code for me but i do use it whenever there´s a concept i don´t understand and if there´s any problem blocking me from getting forward in my many programming books. Having a tireless teacher/mentor with extensive knowledge and who does not care however stupid question you ask is a very good tool for learning.
