Confused to stay in tech with a 25lpa job or go for an MBA

Career Advice

Getting confused if i should stay in tech or go for an MBA. About me I have 2 YOE in a fintech company as a SDE, i love solving problems. Used to love coding before AI took over and now its just prompting and chatting to the bot to do the task and just oversee it. It doesn't feel productive at all even though i am able to deliver the task faster, but the excitement and feeling of solving the issue has completely vanished.

I am not debating if their is any future with AI or are we just gonna keep on prompting our whole life, I am thinking of doing an MBA only because i am getting bored with coding and its not exciting anymore. Is this the right thing to do, as i kept on thinking if its even worth financially as i will be losing approx 60L as salary(considering the promotion and hike) and will be giving ~25L as fees for MBA. Is it worth spending this much for the MBA.

Could someone with similar experience guide me in deciding what should be the reasonable thing to do.

Just to clarify, I used to love coding but doing tasks with AI doesn't give any sense of accomplishment and it just gets boring and hectic to deliver more tasks. Not enjoying coding anymore.
