NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang said at a summit in Dubai that modern youth don't need to strive to learn programming languages as it's better to focus on gaining other knowledge, reports Tom's Hardware.
Why coders might soon disappear
According to Huang, artificial intelligence will be able to replace all programmers by writing code based on tasks formulated in ordinary human language.
"For 10-15 years almost every person sitting on a tech forum stage would have insisted that it is 'vital' for young people to learn computer science, to learn how to program computers. In fact, it’s almost exactly the opposite,” he said. "It is our job to create computing technology such that nobody has to program. And that the programming language is human. Everybody in the world is now a programmer. This is the miracle of artificial intelligence."

Jensen Huang, known for his bold statements, suggested focusing on more practical areas of knowledge. Among the recommended fields are manufacturing, agriculture, biology, and education.
The head of the technology company believes that in-depth knowledge in these areas will help formulate more precise requests for artificial intelligence, which in turn will be able to develop the appropriate software.
