In the age of AI, writing things that used to take years can now be done in months or weeks if you have deep enough pockets for it.

Reimplementation is a particularly juicy target because it's easy to test. Imagine someone writing a better browser than Chrome from scratch in just a year.

Because of this moats around business due to difficulty of implementation are effectively gone.

Especially if there's the same thing that already exists in open source that the model can plagiarize for you.

This looks more like a blog-blurb (if blogs had blurbs) than a comment.
