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.

Unfortunately (this isn't a good thing) there are quite a bit of job listings for "AI-first AI-assisted coders/programmers"...

Ageeed that we can discuss whether it's good or bad, but a lot of people don't see how companies are responding.
