But this isn't the first time a tech exec has predicted the death of coding.

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.

      He’s the CEO of Nvidia one of the largest GPU manufacturers in the world and also a trillion dollar company.

        Good for him. I like Nvidia and use one, but I have the rest of his company to thank for that.

        I think for me it was a combination of:

        < Name of person I don’t know > says < big unhinged sweeping generalization > for < reason that makes no sense to anyone in the field >

        My first instinct is not to click stuff like this altogether. I also think that anyone trying to preach what kids should or shouldn’t do is already in the wrong automatically by assuming they have any say in this without a degree in pedagogy.

          He’s also obviously biased since the more people use LLMs and the like the more money he gets.

          It’s a bit like “lions think gazelles should be kept in their enclosure”.
