No, you don't.

He will win who, prepared himself, waits to take the enemy unprepared.

If you've got 'em, use 'em. If you plan to go into nullsec, though, get yourself a jump clone first, so you can have one clone with no implants to lose. Implants can be helpful in getting the CPU or PG that you need to make a ship fitting work when you're new.

Just to add, this character is 1.5 years old, and has never had learning implants plugged in (unless you count genolutions for the additional fitting room, those were usually lost within a few days). For my first year of playing on him I lost very very few pods. I only started losing them more recently once I started multiboxing (and even more now that I FC most fleets I'm in). During that time, I've very rarely felt like I should have been using learning implants.

Basically what I'm trying to say is that sp isn't all that important. If you're comfortable getting you pod out of bad situations and are mostly operating in high sec and low sec, then learning implants are probably fine. If you're a mission runner, I recommend just plugging in the ones you get as rewards, and not worrying about them too much. I don't recommend hardwirings except the 3% powergrid or CPU slot 6 implants. Powergrid is the limiting factor on most of the ships I've flown, but that may change if you shield tank a lot.
