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.
So the Nvidia drivers will be 100% written by AI then?
Might make them more stable
Does that mean they can’t be copyright anymore? I’ll take it.
Oh dear
Yes, yes, keep my labour in high demand and my salary high
Shut up Jensen, and fuck your jacket.
I asked ChatGPT to show me how to do some Godot4.2 C# stuff the other day as I transition from Unity, it was 70% incorrect.
Good times. (It was probably right for an older version, but I told it the actual version)

Yea, and as we all know, AI will never progress further than it’s current state. /s
My God the stupidity goes to the top!
And who will code the code for ML/AI models ? I mean for Jr. Developers this is going to be a better way to learn than "did you Google it? " And maybe have precise answers to your questions. But it sounds more to me like “maybe you should buy more of our silicon”.
Sounds a bit like “640kb is more than enough” oneliner. But let’s see what it will bring.
But it sounds more to me like “maybe you should buy more of our silicon”.
gotta drum up that infinite demand to meet and grow their insane valuation bubble when they already can’t even produce enough to fill all orders.
While large language models are impressive they seem to still lack the ability to actually reason which is quite important for programmer. Another thing they lack is human like intuition that allows us to seek solutions to problems with limited knowledge or without any existing solutions.
With the boom bringing a lot more money and attention to A.I the reasoning abilities will probably improve but until it’s good enough we’ll need people who can actually understand code. Once it’s good enough then we don’t really need people like Jensen Huang since robots can do whatever he does but better.
GPT4 (the preview) still produces code where it adds variables that it never uses anywhere… and when I asked one time about one variable, it was like, “Oh, you’re right, let me re-write the code to put variable X into use”, then just added it in a nonsensical location to serve a nonsensical purpose.
If Nvidia driver quality goes down in the next couple years, we know why.
And I say I don’t even know this person and he should just stfu and leave those kids alone.
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”.
Do you want Warhammer 40k? Because this is how you get Warhammer 40k.

Hey, the Spice must flow!:))
So this movie is going to become a reality a lot sooner? 1-2 generations max, yikes.
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…
Disagree. They need to learn to code. And be experts with AI tools.
Just like kids with a calculator.
Isn’t this basically “CEO of AI hardware company says that more people should use AI”? Not really news, since you wouldn’t really expect him to say otherwise.
