This video flips the tired "is coding dead?" question into the three that actually matter: ▸ WHO gets outsized returns from learning Python now (five profiles — and who genuinely shouldn't bother) ▸ HOW the same AI that "killed coding" became the best Python teacher that's ever existed ▸ WHAT people who know Python can make AI do that tools-only users simply can't: direct, verify, and compose CHAPTERS 0:00 The worst career advice of 2026 0:57 What AI actually changed about coding 2:15 Who should learn Python (and who shouldn't) 4:14 How to learn Python with AI — the wall is gone 6:07 Three gaps: scale, trust, and composition 8:33 Direct.
