For now, yes, because humans are doing most of jobs better than AI. In 10 years time, if the AI's are doing a better job, people like author need to learn all the ropes if they wanna catch up.

If AI will do better job than humans what ropes are there to learn? You just feed in the requirements and AI poops out products.

This often is brought up that if you don't use LLMs now to produce so-so code you will somehow magically completely fall off when the LLMs all of a sudden start making perfect code as if developers haven't been learning new tools constantly as the field as evolved. Yes, I use old technology, but also yes I try new technology and pick and choose what works for me and what does not. Just because LLMs don't have a good place in my work flow does not mean I am not using them at all or that I haven't tried to use them.
