It's gonna happen this decade, I'm sure of it. Covid has completely screwed our hyperefficient society to the point where I think no human institutions can stem the massive tidal wave that is coming. I'd guess that the financial system, the higher education system, and the political system will all come undone during this period - there aren't many good bets, but I think being good with computers is reasonably safe, as computers are so efficient and eco-friendly that I am almost certain that they will be the centerpiece of whatever new system emerges.
I have the same gut feeling, but have come to the opposite conclusion: Being good with computers will be very low on the list of meaningful skills once things really start to break down.
