My guess: coding will exist, but it will probably be more specialized. The number of jobs will steadily decrease, probably making it harder for entry-level programmers to find work. Why do I think this? The same thing happened to the field of electrical engineering. There were 426,000 electrical engineering jobs in 1990 [1]. In 2002, there were 385,000 jobs. By 2012, the number was 300,000. [2]. And the numbers have continued to decline. (Note: all U.S. numbers) So, aren’t EE grads still getting jobs? Yes, but they are doing more software now and less electrical/electronic things. They have specialized. ME’s have had a slightly more difficult road.
