I think solving one own's problems with code will become more accessible to the wider population, also coding will become a bit more demystified. If you ask me, it will become sort of literacy, like reading alpha-numeric code.

But programming will remain domain of CS, which requires a deeper understanding and proper studying to perform it well. So, while I agree with you, I don't think all of this is that bad. It must be a positive think that more and more people at least try to pick up coding, can solve some basic problems with it, and if anything, will maybe motivate their kids to learn it properly.
