Future software is going to be written by AI, no matter how much you would like to avoid that.
My speculation is that we will see AI operating systems at some point, due to the extreme effectiveness of future AI to hack and otherwise subvert frameworks, services, libraries and even protocols.
So mutating protocols will become a thing, whereby AI will change and negotiate protocols on the fly, as a war rages between defensive AI and offensive AI. There will be shared codebase, but a clear distinction of the objective at hand.
That's why we need more open source AI solutions and less proprietary solutions, because whoever controls the AI will be controlling the digital world - be it you or some fat cat sitting on a Smaug hill of money.
EDIT: gawdDAMN there's a lot of naysayers. I'm not talking stable diffusion here, guys. I'm talking about automated attacks and self developing software, when computing and computer networking reaches a point of AI supremacy. This isn't new speculation. It's coming fo dat ass, in maybe a generation or two... or more...
Of course, if you look far enough into the future. Look far enough and the whole concept of "software" itself could become obsolete.
The main disagreements are about how close that future is (years, decades, etc), and whether just expanding upon current approaches to AI will get us there, or we will need a completely different approach.
