alt Hacker NewsOne solution is not to advance anything of course. I'm not even joking, is there going to be a successor to React? I suspect not, with the vast amount of training data for React now, it's going to look silly to move to something else with less support. What is the last new popular programming language, rust? Will there be another one? I suspect not. Same reasoning. The irony of all this AI acceleration talk is it'll work best if we don't accelerate the underlying tech at all.

Yes. I am seeing a big push to use vanilla js for single file html apps that are easy to build, deploy and distribute because they have no build step. I could see component libraries emerging that make it easier build from chat interfaces with less ceremony
There probably won't be new stuff so much as trends in how stuff is done, and updates around optimizing those trends.

Alot of the language work is scratching the itch of engineers and developers. I think you’re correct and react is the new COBOL.
Humans are notoriously bad at predicting the future. Toward that end, your prediction is laughable. React is the end all be all of UI… lol
Will programming languages evolve into less human oriented written code and more just calls to a trusted AI.
Or will human readable code be less and less of a thing as AI learns it's own, more terse language to talk to other AI's.
