Andrew Ng, one of the architects of modern artificial intelligence, is pushing a radical vision that could undermine the very foundations of technical literacy he helped build: teaching millions to code without actually learning how to code. The Google Brain co-founder's endorsement of "vibe coding"—a euphemism for AI tools that generate programs from casual descriptions—has alarmed computer scientists who warn that a generation of non-programmers wielding powerful automation tools could amplify rather than democratize technological inequality. The debate exposes a deepening fault line between AI optimists who see automation as liberation and skeptics who fear it's becoming a Trojan horse for de-skilling the workforce.
