At the end of the day, the question is what do you do when things aren't working. Being resilient in the face of failure is the most important skill. If AI in 2032 never gets stuck anywhere ever, then that's a totally different world we'd living in.

Low level programming is important for programmers because you have to dig deeper to find gold. The program isn't working like it's supposed to? look at the source.

At the end of the day, that's where the true value lies.
