Predictions by a 20 year old

November 4, 2024

  1. Software employment reduces by drastic amounts and only the very good developers survive, making it harder for freshers to enter.
  2. Content creation becomes the new IT industry, it will employ a vast number of people and people not in software will turn to this. Everyone will create content and have their own public channel and another private channel.
  3. AI Agents automate a large number of tasks, not because they will be entirely better but because there is a large push towards it by huge Companies.
  4. Chat Interface will be the frontend of the internet.
  5. Cryptocurrencies and VR/AR technlogies will take off together, the same way LLMs and Robotics are.
  6. AGI will never be achieved because everyone will have different definitions, so even if you achieve AGI by textbook definition it wont be the magical breakthrough.
  7. There will be no space for mid programmers, you either will be a good programmer by having worked on real life projects or by being a god at Leetcode.
  8. Indic language LLMs will not take off, instead everyone will learn english.
  9. Medical tech will take off only when the products can be used by patients and not doctors.
