What are you actually learning?

you are learning what it takes to keep a machine up and running. You still witness the breakage. You can still watch the fix. You can review what happened. What you are implying from your question is that compared to doing things without AI, you are learning less (or perhaps you believe nothing). You definitely are learning less about mucking around in linux. But, if the alternative was not ever running a linux machine at all because you didn't want to deal with running it, you are learning infinitely more.

How can you review if you don‘t know in the first place?

You can watch your doctor, your plumber, your car mechanic and still wouldn’t know if they di something wrong if you don’t know the subject as such.

You can learn a lot from watching your doctor, plumber or mechanic work, and you could learn even more if you could ask them questions for hours without making them mad.

Very true but I'll still opt for that general anesthesia...
