maybe the resulting future is that the tools can only work with really popular libraries that have lots of people talking about them on stack overflow in the year 2024 or whatever, and new smaller potentially interesting libraries will have a harder time seeing adoption
Yeah, that’s the future I’ve been living since about 2005. The alternative to letting the world be your support desk via stack overflow and similar is to develop killer examples and API documentation for your own libraries so the AI (and everyone else) can learn from that. Qt was a great example of this starting in the early 2000s.
The dark future is where you have competitors “poisoning the well” spreading false information about your tech in the normally reliable channels, then having AI amplify that for them. This, too, is already happening to some extent - more in the political sphere than the technical space, but it’s everywhere to some extent.
