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.
Leave coding to ai? What does this look like? How does this concept work? any examples?
Or does he mean just let ai handle everything and they don’t give the ai any input?? I am no programmer but this just doesn’t sound right to me. As a regular user.
Maybe Nvidia knows something we don’t. Are their any examples of using ai to help code? What is Nvidia specifically refusing to making them say this? I ask these questions because obviously something see making them say this, but all I see from ai in general is things like.
Image generation, story generation, some ai can even roleplay a specific story with you that you inputed, but I just can’t see ai doing actual coding, without over simplifying it and making it boring and less different from the next ‘creation.’
LLM tools can already write basic code and will likely improve a lot, but there are more reasons to learn to code than to actually do coding yourself. Even just to be able to understand and verify the shit the AI tools spit out before pushing it live.
Nvidia knows that the more people who use AI tools, the more their hardware sells. They benefit directly from people not being able to code themselves or relying more on AI tools.
They want their magic line to keep going up. That’s all.
