Yep. That's progress. Everybody is going to become a programmer, software engineer, or video gaming designer. Back when I was in high school, the goal was to become a nuclear engineer, in other words, after Three Mile Island, a pizza delivery boy. But if you were a dunce, you were forced to take shop classes, like auto repair, electrical wiring, or woodworking; then you made a decent living. So not much has changed, except that in its infinite wisdom, our educational system has eliminated almost all shop classes. No problem. Self-driving cars are on the way, so it's probably just another hundred years until self-repairing cars show up too.
