That won't solve the problem that humans will lose the skill to write code. It will become a hobbyist pass time. Like people listening to 8-tracks now...

- CamperBob2 8mo agoThat won't be a problem -- again assuming the vision comes to pass -- any more than the inability to write Latin and Greek holds anyone back today.
- harel 8mo agoBut Greek and Latin don't underpin our entire planet's infrastructure... Software does.
- CamperBob2 8mo agoA better analogy might be to point out that microprocessors run everything, but almost no one needs to know assembly language anymore.
- danny_codes 8mo agoWhy is that a problem? Sewing by hand is mostly a hobby but it doesn't seem to be a problem for the textile industry. Planting seeds by hand in a field is a hobby too. So is cutting down trees with an ax. It sucks but our skill set is (or will soon be) worthless. If it's a consolation, the same is true for anyone who makes money with their brain.
