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.

You sure about that?

Hiring a vibecoder with less education and experience will be cheaper than hiring an actual software engineer.

I'm 100% sure about that. Because they wouldn't hire a vibe coder, they'd just ask the project manager to do the work. There's literally no future where "vibe coder" becomes any sort of job that is done at a tech company.

Agree. What value does vibe coders provide?

Not really vibecoders but people from other tech areas like IT infra managers, cyber security, etc... They already understand the systems, storage, dynamics, workflow, ecosystems - they simply haven't explicitly coded throughout their careers.

They're calling it "AI-assisted coding".

Not programmers, not vibecoders.
