When using AI to generate code, official documentation remains essential

While AI-generated code provides a convenient starting point, complete reliance on AI output still carries significant risks today. Particularly when learning a new field, it&#x27;s better to start with official documentation. Once you have a basic understanding, engaging with AI can lead to better results and improved efficiency.<p>Based on my experience with challenges like [i18n SEO](<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;chrisding.xyz&#x2F;posts&#x2F;nuxt-i18n-seo-guide" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;chrisding.xyz&#x2F;posts&#x2F;nuxt-i18n-seo-guide</a>) and [custom 404 pages](<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;chrisding.xyz&#x2F;posts&#x2F;how-to-customize-the-404-page-in-nuxt#method-2-global-error-handling-with-error-vue" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;chrisding.xyz&#x2F;posts&#x2F;how-to-customize-the-404-page-in...</a>) in an unfamiliar framework, I attempted to use various AI tools for help. However, their responses were consistently inadequate. In contrast, official documentation and traditional search engines proved much more valuable.<p>In summary, while AI is a powerful tool, over-dependence on it may actually hinder our productivity. While leveraging AI&#x27;s capabilities, we shouldn&#x27;t overlook other valuable resources.<p>Furthermore, even in areas where you have expertise, it&#x27;s crucial not to skip fundamental checks and reviews.
