Module Quiz

1. When AI generates code for you, you should:

Copy it directly into production without reviewReview, test, and understand the code before using itAssume it is always correctOnly use AI for documentation

2. AI coding assistants are most useful for:

Replacing the need to learn programmingAccelerating coding tasks, suggesting completions, and explaining unfamiliar codeWriting perfect, bug-free code automaticallyOnly writing simple scripts

3. What is the risk of relying entirely on AI for coding?

AI makes code too efficientYou may not develop the fundamental skills to debug or extend the codeAI code runs too fastThere is no risk—AI is perfect
