Makes sense to me - I see it going down two separate routes in parallel: One is to take the human out the OODA loop for cyber defense. Servlet libs (for example) are going to become fluid, self-modifying things w/ contracts that operate much differenlty from how they do today. The engineering practice around these things will need to change. The second is that UX will be self-modifying. Just like how pi can modify itself, I can see this being a general practice for user-facing applications. Perhaps a text-box in which users can describe tweaks in can request changes to how the application functions. Engineering an application will focus on modeling the non-negotiables of how an application works, and providing the correct primitives for user-driven LLMs to modify software on the fly, as well as track and rollback changes. There'll also be funsies around how to ensure that ads get delivered regardless of the user trying to get rid of them. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

> fluid, self-modifying things w/ contracts This smells like worm food. Those contracts had better be airtight. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
