What are all the possibilities with programming?


Hey all,

I began to code with Replit's 100 Days of Python. From there, I moved into neural networks and deep learning. I realized that I could take the same strategy--grabbing the most important research papers, asking Claude to explain them, and writing the code out--could be applied to computational neuroscience or quantum computing as well.

Now, I trust my gut feeling that these aren't, at least, not directly, the right things to work on for me.

The thing that I want to explore now is video games. I think it would be cool to see how the deep learning / neuro research / math&physics (1st year of undergrad) I've done could be applied to the industry.

However, I want to also know what other areas programming applies to.

My question is: what are all the possibilities with programming?

( by possibilities I mean fields. Like a great software engineer created the bitcoin protocol--this turned into a field of cryptocurrency. )

Thank you!

That's a bit like asking "what are all the possibilities with writing" or "what are all the possibilities with painting". It's far, far too broad of a question to reasonably answer, because every field you can think of has programming possibilities and opportunities.
