Latest update (11-09 12:30): Thomas Wolf argues software will evolve continuously, become translucent, and bespoke

Overview: Thomas Wolf, co-founder of Hugging Face, posts on X that software will shift in three ways: "everflux" software that changes continuously instead of in releases months apart, "translucent" sources that blur the line between open and closed source, and "bespoke" features users can build for themselves. He says LLMs can reproduce an app's interface from a description, which dissolves traditional software IP.

Wolf also argues that personalizing software while still receiving upstream updates will create constant merge conflicts, and that AI agents will need to resolve them. These are his predictions; the post cites no data or examples.
