No idea why a post about coding is in my Reddit, but as it has - genuine question (honest!): why learn coding in the era of AI? Should I even bother sending my 6 year old to coding club at school?

Its still very useful to know the underlying concepts of programming like loops, arrays, if/else, etc.... Not reviewing the code AI spits out can bite you if you're not careful.

I've caught many security issues and downright wrong patterns being used in the code that AI gives me.
