I like writing my passion projects without AI. Is this so strange?

Using AI to write my software just takes all the fun out of it for me.

It feels like just reading a summary or recap instead of reading the actual full novel myself. Like it defeats the whole purpose of it. I write software because it's fun and it stimulates my mind and teaches me things and improves my skills.

Not strange at all! I think there will always be people writing code by hand. I take photos with a 100 year old camera because it's fun.
