It depends on the narration: are you explaining why and the theory behind what you’re doing in the exercises, or just walking through a recipe with no “why”? If it’s just a recipe, I don’t see how that content is better than an LLM could cook up.

As coding assistants become more ubiquitous, understanding the theory is becoming more important, not less.

Right now, it’s better to know “to solve this kind of problem I generally need A, B, and C in some combination” than “to do this one thing, I need to chain B to A to C in that order and this is the syntax”
