Should You Even Bother With LEARNING PYTHON In 2023?

With the recent ChatGPT wave and other AI related technologies popping up out of nowhere, does it still make sense to learn Python in 2023? Well, here's my opinion on whether you should still learn Python in 2023.

Yes. Learning Python is worth your time. Just like other programming languages, packages, and libraries, Python and ChatGPT are just tools for you to provide a better solution for your work/company/clients, ChatGPT or AI won't replace developers and engineers, they're simply tools to make our development process faster and better. Keep up the great work king 👑👑

automation has not gotten rid of humans in manufacturing it has only reduced them. Welding still needs to be done by humans.

[@Indently]

3D printing could be interesting, even if there's only 1 person left working instead of 500, I would consider that a machine takeover.

[@georgioszampoukis1966]

Coders will not be replaced but the baseline knowledge requirement will definitely increase. However, that is exactly what has been happening for hundreds of years. The knowledge required to build a ship in 1700 for example was massively lower than the knowledge required to build a modern ship. The same engineering universities today teach much more complicated stuff than they taught 30 years ago. Its just a matter of evolution of practices and technologies.

[@GregoryCarnegie]

A society built on machines without engineers that understand how to fix them is doomed to fail. Similarly, coders will always be needed.

[@Indently]

Well, imagine your code has a problem, an AI will eventually be able to create 1 billion solutions for that problem in less than a second, and then pick the best one. I don't see why machines couldn't learn to fix machines?

[@Indently]

Machines would create machines, and machines would create machines that fix machines. I think humans are incredible and can make incredible things. Saying that humans aren't capable of creating these kind of machines is a bit of a shame in my opinion.

I was pretty confident that I knew Python when I watched your shorts, and then you broke my whole world when you told me that I need to know how to create an whole Facebook app during some job interview.

[@Indently]

That was just me looking into the future a bit with the potential of AI, I doubt any company will require you to do that right now ahah. But I imagine that if you can make a good FaceBook style app, you'd probably have good success in the market anyway

[@SkyFly19853]

If you don't understand the logic behind the code and if you only rely on A.i , you can NOT become a programmer. A.i does NOT have real brain and imagination that helps you solve problems. a.i can NOT imagine. It can only help a little bit.

[@Indently]

Imagination is debatable, what humans call imagination is based on past experience, if you can feed in these experiences as a dataset to an AI, I'm sure it can accurately replicate the creative process. I personally wouldn't call having a real brain an advantage, when the AI next to me learned to do everything in a split second, a million times faster and better than I ever will be able to.

[@SkyFly19853]

@@Indently A.i needs people to do so... Not people really need A.I. to do so since people already have the real brain and experience to do. A.i. needs people. People don't really need A.i. A.i is created by people, people are NOT created by A.i.

Chat GPT isn't really what I thought it would be, when I was doing a python code and asked for the fix because of an error it gave me wrong answers and I asked again it still doesn't work when I searched using stackoverflow instead I got the correct fix but honestly chatgpt is a really good tool since I still got the line of code that I would never have thought of using and it helped me a lot already. I still think humans are a lot more flexible tho.. For real AI currently isn't in any level an AGI(Artificial General Intelligence) yet, it can do many things but not everything... I am also a linguist when I talk with chatgpt using informal languages it doesn't even understand me even tho I explain how and why the grammar works like that. AI currently is a bit stiff tho. That's why learning python is still worth your time right now.

[@Indently]

I agree it still has a lot that needs to be improved. But I don't know if you're using the GPT-4 model or not, but GPT-4 gives you considerably more reliable answers than GPT-3 it feels like. When you find the proper way to prompt, it rarely gives you code that doesn't work. Now I'm not saying that the code is pretty or optimized, but it does a fair job. Although the wrong information it confidentally gives is still something super tough to deal with.

[@iorekby]

@@Indently It doesn't really work well for non-trivial problems and working in big tech especially it's nothing but non-trivial problems. The Google survey from DevOps teams in big tech from 2 weeks ago was telling: Those pretty experienced DevOps teams had found AI was "very limited" in helping improve productivity. And these are smart teams, their prompt writing abilities would likely be very high.

So bro I can learn python in two weeks if I put in how many hours per day, I want to learn python this year and a beginner in coding.

[@Indently]

I'd say 2-3 hours per day and you'll get a good idea of the Python language in 2 weeks. If it's your first language and time programming, it might take a bit longer.

[@austinlungu2159]

@@Indently yea it's my first language,thanks bro,am gonna put in like 6hrs per day since it my first language.

The only thing I ask chat-gpt is to refactor my variable names.

[@Canbechangedtwiceevery14days]

If you’re new to ML/AI, or at least generative AI, learning python will save you from a lot of head scratching. It’s better to actually understand it than to spend hundreds of hours scouring the web for a solution that may work or spew another or more problems

[@iorekby]

I'm sorry but I don't agree with that at all. Knowing python won't really help you with AI or ML much. Sure, it's the de facto king of that space, but if you don't know the math or HPC or algorithims to even a modest degree, all the Python in the world won't help you understand it.

GPT3 = 10% test passed! GPT4 = 90% test passed! GPT5 = 99%+ accuracy. Means in 2-3 years most programmers will be replaced. Obviously, there will still stay few very competent seniors to supervise and make sure all works smoothly, but 95% will be sent home! And that is actually good because why would humans do such a tedious and demanding work. People should start to receive a salary from their governments instead of working 10 hours daily in a boring job.
