In 2615, will it seem just as shocking that so few of us could write code?

600 years ago, only 5% of people could read and write.
In 2015, just 0.5% of of the world could write/read code.

I remember thinking: in 2615, will it seem just as shocking that so few of us could write code?

Turns out I was wildly conservative.
Vibe coding seems to be collapsing that 600-year prediction into a decade.
People who've never written a line of code are now building apps, automating workflows, creating tools just by describing what they want.
It's incredible...
