Everyone should learn to code.
Opening7.3
Coding teaches breaking a big problem into small steps, which helps in every job. For example, even with AI writing code, you need to read it to know if it is right. Start there and the rest follows.Opening7.3
AI already writes most simple code. Time is better spent learning to describe problems clearly. For example, not everyone should learn plumbing either. Specialisation is how society works. Start there and the rest follows.Rebuttal7.3
You keep coming back to "right", but that only tells half the story. AI already writes most simple code. Time is better spent learning to describe problems clearly. That matters because it is what happens in practice, not just in theory.Rebuttal7.4
True, better matters. But it does not decide this debate. A little code lets anyone automate boring parts of their own work. That matters because it is what happens in practice, not just in theory.Closing6.2
You do not need to be a programmer. You need to not be scared of a program. Remember, a little code lets anyone automate boring parts of their own work. That is why this side should win today.Closing5.8
Teach clear thinking. Let the dots write the syntax. Remember, not everyone should learn plumbing either. Specialisation is how society works. The evidence points one way, and so do I.
