How Does Availability of Coding Models Enable Millions of People to Build the Next Minecraft?

Small things sometimes become giant things because people often underestimate total addressable market or the number of people who want something. Many great things have very humble origins. Coding models put the power of building things in the hands of millions of people who could not do it before. A subset will turn into really amazing huge things or huge companies.

Minecraft originally was like three people. Minecraft was tiny. People always say when is the first billion dollar single person company. Minecraft was the first billion dollar single person company over a decade ago. Even then individuals could do really big things but only if somebody was very obsessed with building one thing or had the technical ability to do it. Now technical capabilities are expanding dramatically which means dramatically more people could build the next Minecraft in the future.

The biggest things in the world are only getting bigger with more aggregation than less. A long tail of stuff can get much bigger than it used to be able to get. The world has moved to global liquidity on the internet where the market went from ten million users to a hundred million users to billions and billions of users so suddenly the global market can really accelerate adoption.
