The only prediction I have regarding autonomous API:s is: neuronstreams. If an API exposes a set of input channels and output channels where data can be sent between neural nets, they will be able to adapt to whatever format they see fit without having to make sense to us humans.

It is a scary thought but if we want to remove humans in this process we shouldn't even be able to understand the communication.

Seems like you'd want to just have the users running the neural nets to avoid issues of either a single neural net being trained by all the users and converging to a single standard (still quite interesting but not a solution to the problem at hand) or having to run a separate instance for each individual user to train as desired.

Thoughts?

That is my point: We don't need to understand the communication means. Instead, we should just declaratively say what we want the machine to do, and it will figure out the rest.
