What can I do with Python?

Hey there! I've been coding on Python for a while and I'm getting bored with it. Is always the same: creating a file that opens a terminal and you put your name and it says: "Your name is bla bla". The same happened to me when I started with Ruby.

I want to do new things, interesting things. I've heard about doing AI with Python, doing Big Data with Python, doing security software with Python but I'm stuck doing a simple calculator.

What do you recommend for me? Or how was your experience at the beginning?

PD: Do you recommend and IDE for Python?
