I was never a math or science major in school, and strongly disliked having to show my work.
I wanted to figure out the answer in any way I could, and just give out the answer and get the full marks.
Now with AI, I’m seeing code and ticket changes that go from a blank class file to a fully fleshed out solution – that might work well – but hasn’t been removed.
It’s a good reminder for me as I use AI, that yes, it’s important to keep showing my work.
The differentiator won’t be the answer; we all have them. It’s going to be how you show your work, how you build your career, and you take steps in and out of work.
Now I understand.
