It still probably will be better to know how to program. You can use the AI as well to teach you.
I think the assembly/higher level languages analogy may not be entirely accurate. If I'm making a web app and want some JavaScript for my special UI, an LLM can write a lot of versions based on how I prompt it. But it will always be faster if I already know how to write code, and using it to speed me up/do any boilerplate needed. That's why copilot is so useful, even if it's not the highest quality.
And it's really not hard to get the basics of programming.. that's why I think it should be taught. I don't see why you need to learn more chemistry than programming in school.
