Technology will destroy the indie games industry

Games are no different than any other industry. Tech will continue to make it easier and cheaper.

For that matter, robots and automation will continue to take over all the mundane tasks in all industries.
Soon the bots will be doing most of the work - from Farming to Trucking To Food Service.
It is inevitable.

Although perhaps the entertainment sector will continue to boom and be done by humans since it requires creativity.
Things like movies, books, games…
Creating art (including games) will be the last sector to fall to ai and automation.

People will have more free time and spend it on entertainment.

So seize the day and use the tech to make a better game. Or to make and sell tech to make games.

It is the BEST time to make games. (Anybody remember 6502 assembly language? Sheesh making even crappy games was hard back then.)
It is far easier now, The tech is far better.
You can do far more with less people.

Be creative - let the technology enable you to focus on what makes the game fun.
