This is where I’m stuck. The ecosystem we have today has evolved over >40y in lockstep with new hardware and technology, in a feedback loop of technological development. It is pretty resilient (from an evolutionary perspective). It includes layers of abstraction that hide enough complexity for humans to use it, but an AI doesn’t need this crutch; if we delegate the code writing responsibilities to it then what happens to this ecosystem? Purely from an economic perspective it is likely that in the limit we narrow down to the most efficient way to do this, which will be a language designed for AI, and dollars to donuts it’ll be owned by Google (et al). Will Python4 (etc) whither and die on the vine, due to lack of investment/utility? Then what happens to technology?
