I think you've gone off on a bit of a tangent here. This is less about lack of understanding and more about people utilizing AI to offset their thinking. The less we exercise our skills (be it writing software, medical diagnosis, etc.) the fewer opportunities for growth and reinforcement of skills users of AI have.

The bicycle never replaced walking, it just provided another means of locomotion. People straight up use AI to think for them.
