We’re quickly approaching a bifurcation in FOSS with projects including or not including LLM generated code.

We’ll have to come up with a name so we can talk clearly about it.

I desperately hope the non-LLM side is going to be large enough to include a full stack, otherwise there’s a lot of work ahead of us for no good reason.

At least until we have truly free and open, non-exploitative, consentually sourced, sustainably powered tooling, which is a bubble or two away at least.

@janl why are developers “sleep walking” into “white goods” commodification - https://www.rolandberger.com/en/Insights/Publications/The-white-goods-market.html?
Going from an embodied, practiced, creative skill to a pressing buttons on a “sealed, pre-packaged appliance”.

I want “Star Trek” A.I. tech or J.A.R.V.I.S A.I. from Iron Man. Not this confabulation engine.

The white goods market

Many white goods manufacturers were long successful with their strategy of "engineer for eternity, build production scale and leave selling to retail". But future success will rely heavily on direct customer interaction based on data.
