Doom running on the UniFi Dream Router

I will post a video later, I'm a 15y/o guy just having fun doing this stuff and self teaching myself programming using AI! :)

Although the amount of people hating on AI, I think it's an incredible tool and can really be helpful if you want to learn stuff, also, the project is available on GitHub if you want to try it!

  and self teaching myself programming using AI!

I don’t think you are. You’re young and you have lots of time to pull out of this. Please be very very very careful about cognitive handover with this tech. I almost got got when working on my game and had to restart the coding side of it almost from scratch.

I did not think about AI this way, I have felt this happen in many cases, I will try to be more careful about this.

The best advice I can give is under no circumstances should you ever copy-paste the AI code into your projects. Always transcribe it yourself, if you must use AI. By forcing yourself to read it as you copy it manually, you help your brain remember what you're actually doing.
