@Chapz Let's take the AI out of this for a moment.
I occasionally find a solution to a problem on Stack Overflow. I copy-paste that solution and in my codebase I link to that solution as attribution.
Perhaps a project adds a policy "No code from Stack Overflow allowed."
That's fine!
If I understand the underlying mechanics of that solution I found, I would then close the tab and not copy-paste anything. I would "reset" my brain. Then I'd go in and program the solution myself.
Make sense?
@jaredwhite Not really. You will just write something along the line what you saw at Stackoverflow, maybe with a small adjustment. You would have done it with adjustments probably anyway, without copy pasting. But in the end, you looked. And once you saw, pretending to close the window, and writw what you saw out of the head doesn't really make it any different.
A difference would be if you never resorted to opening stackoverflow at all.
