Perhaps by learning to use the YT API (seriously something that should take 2 hours max if you know how http works) you'll learn something from their design choices, or develop opinions on what makes a good API. And by learning a bit more python you'll get exposed to patterns you could use in your own language.
If anything, using GPT-4 makes a lot of that more efficient. Rather than scrolling through loads of API documentation trying to guess how to do something, writing Python with a "C" accent, I can just read the implementation that GPT-4 spits out, which is almost certainly based on seeing hundreds of examples written by people who are fluent in python, and thus using both to best effect.
