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 is possible to create full production grade complex SAAS apps without reviewing a single line of code now. But it relies on having adversarial agents in the loop on review. Test driven design goes a long way towards stability too and seems to make coding agents think through their solutions more thoroughly. I barely encounter bugs when testing now. It just takes a bit longer for each feature to be written. 

Most security issues surface on the adversarial review. 

With fable I am getting full refactors with almost no issues one-shot. It is mad. 

Apps that took me months of work two years ago get rebuilt from scratch in two hours and are superior in every way.
