Pretty much the title. For those who use LLMs for learning or writing rust code, claude is much better at it, based on my experience.

Interesting! Could you give some examples?

Its knowledge about various crates, better error handling, compile errors etc.

Hate to break it to you, but you’re not really learning.

Pretty sure an LLM is much more helpful in teaching than this useless comment.

You are not wrong.

why not? Don’t assume how others use llms

It’s great for getting a feel for how things are done, imo.

But yes a crutch you should gradually stop relying on.

Meh some people definitely learn well by example. I’d say the bigger issue is that the “example” may be wrong
