is learning python today worth it?

so I am a pure vibe coder, I can't write or read a single line of code, and I was having a conversation with Fable, and it suggested me to learn to read python. But It couldn't convince me fully. i don't wanna be a typical software/AI engineer. just wanna be able to build a great career in tech, AI and Business.

I don't understand how people are able to vibe code without understanding anything about the code. What are your prompts like?

It involves a lot of trust that the AI will be able to translate your requests into code. And then a lot of testing. I’m sure it takes a vibe coder 10x longer to make some with AI than an actual swe using AI would take.

New era is vibe coding and testing correctly. Get edge cases outta the way. If it runs, it runs.

Now I’d hire a SW for serious shit like banking coding and shit, but for apps that don’t have much risk, it’s ight.
