What should future programmers learn when AI is already “doing so much for us”?

When AI can write code in just seconds, is learning programming still essential? From the perspective of the “architect” behind CodeVista—a platform that supports tens of thousands of developers at FPT Software—Mr. To Trong Hieu believes the real advantage doesn’t lie in typing speed, but in system thinking and the ability to guide AI effectively.

With over a decade in the field and currently leading the implementation of CodeVista, Mr. Hieu has witnessed how AI is not just assisting but reshaping every step of the software development lifecycle.

“I used to think being great at coding was a competitive edge. But now, I realize the real advantage is knowing how to ‘ask’ AI the right questions—and how to evaluate the output.” – To Trong Hieu, CodeVista Project Lead, FPT Software.

As AI becomes more capable of “coding on its own,” programming remains a valuable skill—but with a shift in focus. The true demand now is for developers who can collaborate with AI: those who know how to ask the right questions, verify results, and, most importantly, understand the context behind the problems they solve.

“Many young learners today feel overwhelmed when starting out. Since AI can generate code instantly, they’re unsure where to begin,” Hieu explains. “But the first thing to learn has never changed: system thinking and problem analysis. That’s what enables you to lead AI—not be led by it.”

No matter how powerful platforms like CodeVista become, they cannot replace the human ability to frame problems, design logical flows, and ensure output quality. In the end, it’s still the human who understands the “why” behind the solution.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your child should learn programming in an age where AI can “do it all,” or whether what they’re learning today might soon become outdated—this evening’s webinar will offer much-needed clarity.

It’s a rare opportunity for FPT parents to revisit what truly matters for future programmers, through real-world insights from experts and large-scale software projects.
