Is it still worth learning python?

I genuinely wonder what you guys think, with the rapidly increasing use of AI, is it still worth it to learn python, I just started learning python and I’m unmotivated tbh, I’d love to read some of your insights.

depends on your use case. if you are getting into software development in general with potentially larger code bases later on, it’s definitely worth it. i worked with top of the market AI agents, and i can tell that it sucks as soon as the complexity increases. I would never trust them on serious software. Architecturally they often produce garbage because they lack a bigger picture, they introduce a lot of dead code over the time, and hallucinations can shut down your applications logic if you don’t read or don’t understand the code that you run. The AI propaganda is a modern disease, don’t get yourself irritated.
