# How Programming Will Look In the Future?

**[DEV](https://daily.dev/sources/devto)** · 3 min read · 1014 upvotes · 100 comments

## Summary

Programming has largely stuck to the von Neumann paradigm since the 1940s, but modern hardware with multiple cores faces challenges with this model. Traditional concurrent programming solutions like Go's goroutines introduce complexities. Data flow programming offers an alternative by treating programs as networks of independent nodes that pass data, avoiding race conditions and allowing natural parallelism. Nevalang is a new language built around this paradigm, offering a promising future for programming. However, it is still in development and looking for contributors.

> In the near future you will simply talk to AI and it will write the code in whatever language is best for that job. even highly optimized low-level assembly. I already predicted that 10 years ago that this will happen by 2030.
>
> Programming in the next 20 years will be mainly descriptive talking (since talking is faster than typing), as AI will improve drastically in the next 5 years, this will be like talking to a really amazing programmer-friend who sits next to you.
>
> In the more distant future there will be a mind-connection bridge between with AI, because speaking very slow and limited.

> This type of logical schema has existed for many years (for example, in game development engines) and has primarily been used by 'no-code' users. Why should this change? Programming languages provide far greater flexibility in creating any kind of logic. This approach imposes significant limitations on developers. And if we try to complicate it to the level of a programming language, it simply becomes a programming language itself. Thus, this methodology will always remain an alternative, constrained pathway for solving problems.
