It seems like quite a tower of babel just waiting to happen.. All those libraries that once had thought go into tangled consequences of supporting new similar features and once had ways to identity for their security updates needed will all just be defective clones with 5%-95% compatibility for security exploits and support for integrations that are mostly right but a little hallucinated?

I think it's more likely that libraries will give way to specified interfaces. Good libraries that provide clean interfaces with a small surface area will be much less affected by thos compared to frameworks that like to be a part of everything you do.

The JavaScript ecosystem is a good demonstration of a platform that is encumbered with layers that can only ever perform the abilities provivded by the underlying platform while adding additional interfaces that, while easier for some to use, frequently provide a lot of functionality a program might not need.

Adding features as a superset of a specification allows compatibility between users of a base specification, failure to interoperate would require violating the base spec, and then they are just making a different thing.

Bugs are still bugs, whether a human or AI made them, or fixed them. Let's just address those as we find them.

I could certainly see that direction earlier in some communities, but reaching agreement on specs seems like the opposite of where distributed low cost code writing is headed.. I.e. I like 20% of your OSS library and have one different opinion so I pull part of it in directly, change something, and ask an LLM to freshen it where that should mean what the LLM thinks I usually mean which is kind of like what some other people mean.
