Why pay to learn coding in the age of AI?

AI didn't make coding skill worthless. It moved the value: from writing code to reading and steering it. Four findings from the past year, each with sources.

45%

of AI-generated code contained OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities in Veracode's 2025 tests of 100+ models

Someone still has to read the code

AI ships bugs at scale: duplicated code rose 8x in 2024. Review became the bottleneck, and Google now runs a code-comprehension interview round: reading and debugging, not writing from scratch.

94%

of LLM-generated compilation errors are type-check failures, per a study cited by GitHub's Octoverse 2025

Types catch what AI hallucinates

The compiler flags the model's mistakes before they ship. Type-constrained generation (PLDI 2025) cut compile errors by more than half. Knowing the type system is knowing the steering wheel.

#1

most used language on GitHub since August 2025, past Python and JavaScript

The industry picked TypeScript for the AI era

Contributors grew 66% in one year, and GitHub credits AI-assisted coding for the shift. About half of professional developers now use it (Stack Overflow 2025).

19% slower

experienced developers working with AI, who believed they were 20% faster (METR RCT, 2025)

AI pays out to people who can judge its output

The lost time went into reviewing code they couldn't quickly judge. DORA finds the same: AI amplifies the judgment you already have.

What Pro actually buys you

Access to all 200+TypeScript challenges on this site, solved in an interactive playground. That's the reps you need to actually master the language: reading, judging, and steering code well enough to stay on top of AI instead of getting replaced by it.

Why I built this

I built TypeScript Pro as the resource I wish I'd had when I started with TypeScript. I do this because I love coding, TypeScript, and web development, and because I believe there will always be a place for well-rounded engineers. I'm not trying to get rich off a learning site. I want the next generation of engineers to have an affordable place to master the craft.

Thanks a ton, Phil
