Assembly language can be considered an "ancient interface" in modern programming. Like a scientist's building blocks, it constructs computer operations by combining the most fundamental instructions. High-level languages and libraries are merely the result of stacking these blocks together.

Understanding assembly provides insight into the essence of programming. For example, C is just a more convenient way to organize assembly, and even Python or JavaScript eventually translate into it. While the shape of the blocks may change, the underlying mechanisms remain the same.

Even as AI and automated code generation advance, low-level control remains crucial, and assembly knowledge will never fade. Just as scientists learn fundamental theories, programmers who understand these building blocks can construct more robust systems.
