Is AI making us all use the same tools, or is it empowering us to try new things? 🤔 The Head of GitHub Next, Idan Gazit, sees two trends colliding: • Consolidation around popular frameworks where AI excels • Lower barriers to programming languages you've never written What do you predict will win out?

@github If AI abstracts most syntax, are we moving toward framework lock-in or true polyglot devs?

@github i think its a bit of both consolidation around popular frameworks like nextjs and lower barriers to new languages

This really feels like the new age of Builders. In my view, LLMs don’t care much about programming languages anymore — they only care about the goal. One week ago, after reading the NYT article “Coding After Coders: The End of Computer Programming as We Know It” by Clive Thompson, I started a fun experiment with @grok . We discussed how LLMs treat languages (even binaries), and I ended up creating a small CLI app that recommends the optimal language for any task. For fun I also invented the concept of Large Binary Model (LBM) — a pure binary model that could come after today’s LLMs. I even tuned it with a “Stranger Things” horror mode 😎 Attached the token consumption visualizer we built live during our conversation.

@github GitHub Next sees two trends: AI consolidation vs. lower barriers to new languages. Will we all use the same tools, or explore more? The future of dev hinges on balancing efficiency and diversity. #GitHub #AI #Programming #DevTools #FutureOfCode

We have data on this exact question — but for brands, not code. When someone asks AI "best tool for X" — AI consolidates HARD. From 1,578 brands across 4 engines: → Only 18 brands (1.1%) score 100% visibility → 49.5% score 0% — completely invisible → The top brand per category gets 3-5x more recommendations than #2 AI IS making us use the same tools. Not because they're better — because AI creates a recommendation monopoly. The brands in AI's training data win. Everyone else becomes invisible. Data: geobuddy.co/blog/ai-search…

@github I think tools will be replaced by AI itself. We'll use models instead of languages and tools. AI will use those tools at first and eventually there will be new programming layer directly for AI usage

@github I think it’s both. AI helps us double down on what works while making it much easier to explore unfamiliar territory. Lowering the barrier to entry for new languages is the real game changer for productivity.

@github Making a new framework here that I absolutely guarantee you I can make AI good at "day one" seems like a challenge for a younger me...but I wouldn't be so confident it doesn't happen. A better framework than React has been sorely needed for some time.

@github Agree. Decision speed is usually the edge.Strong take. Better loops beat better forecasts.

@github Agree. Decision speed is usually the edge.

@github Frameworks will consolidate for stability, but AI removes the "syntax tax." We’re shifting from being language specialists to system architects who can ship in any stack overnight.

@github hey guys do you have any plans for a unified copilot interface? something like cursor's glass or T3 code?
