Jensen Huang says kids shouldn’t learn to code — they should leave it up to AI.::At the recent World Government Summit in Dubai, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang made a counterintuitive break with tech leader wisdom by saying that programming is no longer a vital skill due to the AI revolution.
Disagree. They need to learn to code. And be experts with AI tools.
Just like kids with a calculator.
I know some Gen Z recent grads who use chatgpt to write their code.
back in my day, we had to write our code ourselves…
Producer of calculators says kids don’t need to learn maths, they just need a calculator
Well, a lot of maths can be done with a calculator. They don’t need to learn to actually understand the maths unless either they actually want to, or they’re going into something like engineering.
This is objectively stupid. There are tonnes of things you learn in maths that are useful for everyday life even if you don’t do the actual calculations by hand.
In many engineering professions you really need to understand the underlying math to have a chance in hell to interpret the results correctly. Just because you get a result doesn’t mean you get an answer.
They aren’t going to catch the typo or order of operations error they made on their calculator if they don’t understand the math
