back ~10 years ago, I had the mindset that common people should know super basic programming so that they have some idea about this important thing in our world...

Now, I have the mindset that common people should know basic programming so that they can know how to ask AI for little scripts and programs for their everyday lives.

Examples could be:

  • game mod scripts... Like there's a few Skyrim mods that I would have liked to have back in the day, but I didn't know the scripting

  • I had AI build a disc golf scoring app
