Python is shaping the world as we know it, with applications spanning web development, data science and analysis, game development, and more — even NASA contractors leverage its data management capabilities for shuttle missions. Here are just a few examples of modern Python-powered innovations.
Python is prevalent in the artificial intelligence community for its ease of use and flexibility. For example, a business could build a basic chatbot that answers common customer questions. Programmers could use Python to scrape the contents of email exchanges, identify common themes with visualizations, and build a predictive model to supply the chatbot with responses.
Python is used to run various parts of some of today’s most popular websites, including Instagram, Spotify, and YouTube. In fact, the visual bookmarking platform Pinterest has used Python in some form since it was founded. Python code has also powered the file-storage platform Dropbox’s desktop applications and server infrastructure for more than a decade.
Remember that summer blockbuster with the huge explosions? Companies like Lucasfilm’s Industrial Light & Magic use Python to help program the special visual effects we see on the big screen. It has enabled them to develop standard toolkits they can reuse across productions, while still retaining the flexibility to build custom effects in less time than ever before.

Python is an amazing tool for improving your speed on basic analytics tasks when you’re working with multiple variables. For example, using a simple line of Python code can help you create scatterplots that visualize correlations between all combinations of your variables in 30 seconds... And that’s just basic visualization!”

Python frequently ranks as one of the most popular coding languages, in large part thanks to its versatility. Because it is free to contribute to, developers are able to continually add new features, meaning Python can support game development, website creation, tool development, process automation, mathematical calculation, data visualization, and more. Its code powers the back-end of popular websites like YouTube, Instagram, and The Washington Post — even NASA contractors leverage its data management capabilities for shuttle missions.
