Marc Andreessen predicted software would eat the world. It did. Now domain experts using no-code tools will create the next wave of value by turning their specialized knowledge into software, generating both economic and social returns.
About a decade ago, Marc Andreessen wrote this column called "Software Is Eating the World" and got quoted a lot by technology types. And a lot of software people got very excited about it, me included. But I would posit in the last 10 years, his predictions have really borne out. Software did eat the world. And I'd say now software has eaten the world. And if you are what you eat, then software is now made of the world. And it's the world that's going to drive the big guy to transact. So that really has to do with domain knowledge. And this is where no-code becomes so important because people who have domain knowledge, they can express that knowledge through software and create a lot of equity value in the process. They create a lot of social value in the process. And when you are now the domain person and you are making use of things like no-code tools to express that knowledge through technology and through software, then truly not only has software eaten the world, but you are the world eating software back.
