Vibe coding, or coding with AI, is growing in popularity, but engineers say you have to actually know how to code to do it well.

OpenAI chairman Bret Taylor said that the computer science degree's greatest value is teaching "systems thinking" in the age of AI code editors.

Computer science education will probably focus less on coding and more on computational thinking and A.I. literacy, said Mary Lou Maher, a director of the Computing Research Association.

The student-run Computer Science Graduate Professional Development Club and co-sponsors organized a student coding challenge with Amazon Web Services including prizes and networking opportunities.
