Is Coding a Myth or Reality?

💻 Is Coding a Myth or Reality?

I am from a Computer Science background, but coding was never something I truly loved.

For a long time, I wondered,Do I really need to be a strong coder to work in Data, AI, or Analytics?

Today, my perspective has changed.

I don't necessarily need to become the person who writes hundreds of lines of code every day. But I do need to understand code well enough to think through a problem, communicate with genuine coders, challenge assumptions, and know whether the solution actually makes sense.

And with AI changing how we write software, that understanding is becoming even more important.

Coding may not be my passion. But understanding coding is becoming my necessity.

That, to me, is the difference between using AI to write code and using AI to solve problems.
