A lot of people jump to adapt your curriculum to the AI era. And. Maybe.
Education is weird because of course there are two goals to education. One is to grant a credential, and the other is to actually teach information.
Of course business want an accurate credential, that's I think a lot of the controversy about lowering standards in university education. And people who dig in and do their job well want peers who do so. But I don't think I know anyone who is really good at their job who doesn't try to figure out their job at least one level below what they need to.
So the point is, prior to AI you had to learn programming by learning computer science. You had to learn a certain level of fundamentals, those were the requirements of the course. In the future? If we adapt the courses to AI? I think we'll necessarily run into the Codeschool problem. Sure some people can go to code school and really dig in and learn and have a great career as a software developer. But the people who only learn what they're taught, at the level it was taught? Will really struggle.

That's... weird.
