Non-technical execs drive AI coding course boom around Doubao, prizing output over SOTA

The author observes that offline AI coding courses (notably WorkBuddy's, built around Doubao) keep selling out to bosses and executives rather than AI practitioners.
These learners don't care whether the model is SOTA — they just want working output and efficiency gains, then iterate. A telling signal that application demand diverges from benchmark-driven discourse.
