More and more I think we're at a crossroads with teaching CS and AI. Working with agentic AI lately, I’ve noticed I barely touch code anymore. But knowing the mechanics of how the program works in the background? Irreplaceable.

Is the question now: how do we teach the foundations? Students still need to understand how data structures work, what databases can do, and where the dangers lie. Even if we aren't writing lines of code, we are still the architects.

What info are apps taking in? How do we, as the humans behind the prompt, take responsibility for that data? The shift from "syntax writer" to "system overseer" is massive, and our educational frameworks aren't ready.
