Why You Still Need to Learn How to Code

Sun Nov 23 2025

Recent talks from Sergey Brin and Andrew Ng share a consistent message: AI will change how we code, but it will not remove the need to understand coding deeply.

Real Growth Comes from Real Products

You don’t grow by building the biggest system — or the smallest demo.

You grow by building something real.

Atriva AI lives in that sweet spot:

• Not too big to be overwhelming
• Not too small to be meaningless

You work on systems that must:

• Run reliably
• Integrate multiple components
• Handle real data and edge cases

Coding Is Still the Core Skill

AI tools can generate code, but only you can:

• Choose the right architecture
• Debug real failures
• Make trade-offs between performance, cost, and complexity

Only real products force engineers to develop judgment.

Atriva AI gives you a place to practice coding with purpose — where every line of code connects to a working system.
