This assumes AI will be able to offer support outside the trained corpus of human knowledge and generate code with post-training-date apis. These will probably still require human support and feedback so that subsequent AIs can also support them. This means companies like stack overflow will require licensing and compensation for AI corporations to use new data - it won't be free anymore. Data hoarding is the future, not open data sharing (because everyone will fear being replaced). We will see a more closed future behind paywalls. It will be very expensive for subsequent versions of ChatGPT etc. to be trained with up to date knowledge outside of Wikipedia etc.

(Although notably, I only spend time writing answers on StackExchange because I feel like I'm contributing to an open corpus of knowledge; the license is a major part of that.)

  > StackExchange seems pretty poorly positioned then because their data is under the Creative Commons (NAL) the license legally allows others to reproduce the data, so they can't be sued for copyright infringement. But it wouldn't stop SO from implementing rate limits, registration wall, or paywall. They didn't undertake on a mission to freely and openly spread your answers to as many people (or bots) as possible — they only promised not to sue for copyright.
