The idea is inherently very romantic and alluring for developers: the unix philosophy. Arguably yes, it makes total sense, but the difference is that the tools to both develop software and combine them via unix pipes made that a beautiful and simple experience. I don't think AI and language models are there yet. Ultimately we have to move beyond the text just slightly to passing some structured data, because then we can pipe it not between processes, but actual APIs and services.
In the end a model likely ends up being deployed upon a set of APIs with a textual interface for the end user. Command and control system with built in intelligence. Adept + Inflection are likely the thing that get us there, but it's more likely google develops it first or has because effectively Google Search is a text box that's being piped into AI at this very moment to give you the answers you're looking for. It's only a matter of time before that turns into buying, calling, creating, processing or ordering whatever you want too.
