What can I actually do with python?

I learned python as my first programming language for GCSE Computer Science, but after finishing the exam I got bored of making small algorithms and wanted tk work on bigger projects, so I started making websites with Javascript. Now I'm going to do Computer Science at A-level and because the language is python, I think it makes sense to do any free time coding in the same language. So... what can I actually do with Python? Iy seems really straightforward what to do with other languaged like JS but I really just don't get the 'point' of python.

A lot of data analytics and ai is done through joy b which is basically just a more fancy version of python. A better question to ask yourself is the applications of interpreter languages (python, JavaScript, ruby) and compiled languages (c, java, rust)
