I recently stopped using AI directly in my code editor, and I've felt similarly. However I have noticed I regain the lost syntax knowledge very fast. I think at the end of the day our jobs aren't to memorize syntax, that comes, goes, and changes with the tech we use. Our jobs are rather to have the knowledge needed to engineer software, and AI is just another assistant. I will continue to have it off in my IDE for a few more weeks, but I don't fear the loss of syntax knowledge (to a certain extent)
