Learning through LLMs

My intention this past week was to build a solid foundation in programming so that I am able to pick up learning to code and also understand when I read the code on what it actually does. I wanted to get familiar with terms used by software developers and be able to understand what they mean by that. I know very little python and I was unsure on how to start. I looked at some videos where they explained their approach, setup etc. Frankly it quickly became overwhelming enough for me to quit this pursuit. This is where I decided I will leverage LLMs for my learning. I have used LLMs extensively for quick learning of certain topics, getting up to speed on something. One of the advantages i felt it had over traditional learning is that you will be able to tailor is extensively according to your own learning style. The problem with learning with courses, tutorials or any other structured learning is that first, the learning path is not customized for your current knowledge and skill level.
