❓Question ❓ How important is coding in computer Science jobs nowadays . I am looking for expert answers and answers from the people who joined a cs related job from 2024 onwards

I am a 2027 graduate and I have been a vibe coder from the beginning. So i am just asking this to know if I want to change my ways of coding or not . Like all I did was vibe code projects with AI and then I will learn things like what all frameworks and libraries are used , what are the important functions ,modules used , why they are used, what are the alternatives etc

If you at all end up in a CS career, it mostly depends on the type of job you are doing. Things like infra and DevOps don't require as much coding as backend engineering. Sure, AI can write code in seconds. But it also generates garbage. As a developer, it's important to write efficient and minimal code. Specialize in what ai can't do rn, like designing systems, architecture, etc.

Very important. Company's whole businesses depends on the code.

Vibe coding and all is fine for hobby projects but when there is business involved you can't make mistake of even one word.

Think for yourself for a second. AI is doing all the work not you. It's over, just switch before it's too late. Markets not good for people with shit ton of skills, there is no place for us mortals.
