We are going to see a massive creativity expansion with the many, many people who will have access to amateur level coding. Think of it like the expansion of visual images once the first personal camera was widely adopted. There are still professional photographers, but they are now dwarfed by the number of amateurs (everyone with a modern phone).

Except this analogy breaks down because photography is but a sliver of what is possible with ubiquitous programmability. It's going to be more, different, and somewhat unexpected.

Get ready!

I doubt it ... most people are by nature consumers not makers.

It's like the web which was originally thought to be the means for people to be creating their own web sites rather than consuming TV content, but look how that went.

I guess nowadays there are an elite few professional youtubers making regular content, and teenagers posting TikTok videos, but that's about it.
