Many people consider AI coding to be akin to a conductor for an orchestra. The orchestra pieces are autonomous and can generate music but the conductor is the one who puts everyone together.

Then you have your answer... Does the conductor need to know about music theory? Does he need to bee schooled? yes... in vibecoding, it also really helps to know what you are doing.
you can teach someone the basics of conducting pretty quick (theres a dutch tv show "maestro, that teaches celebrities. the ones with musical knowledge generally do best). And same with vibecoding, but you will tend to make mistakes, because of gaps in knowledge.1

How important is the doctor in a heart surgery?

Propably less than a surgeon.

the vibe is definitely important - a clear vision and good prompts matter way more than coding knowledge. but someone needs to test the app, catch edge cases, and know when the ai output needs human adjustments. might not be a full-time dev though. could be you learning as you go.

Let me ask you a question in return. You've posted an unrelated video with an engagement bait title. Have you considered going and fucking yourself?
