> No one is going to write new UI libraries if SOTA models know React best, no one is going to bother with new languages if SOTA models know Python, Go, JavaScript, and so on the best.

Eh, you just don’t get how people work. You might be right overall, or maybe not.

People will write new UI frameworks and languages if the problem seems interesting to them. There are loads of people who just like working on interesting problems, and that’s very unique to each person. They may use AI, they may not, but as long as people get deeply sucked into interesting problems, we’ll still see new ideas and projects.

Or, look at react. It was invented because Facebook was running into issues writing big web UIs. Many companies still have issues writing these, and if they have issues, it’ll be a way they can differentiate and compete. What happens when someone turns an AI on the optimization problem and invents a bespoke in-house tool that’s actually fantastic? That’s another way you could get new tools.
