The longer A.I. exists, the more difficult it is to find new information that's actually more valuable than what's already in the training set.
New code found online will be more and more A.I. generated itself, creating a feedback loop that tops off the intelligence to a more or less the collective intelligence.
It might even degrade, like saving a .jpg image as .jpg over and over again.
I think the A.I. companies have infringed the copyright of/stolen almost all of the most valuable coding resources online at this point.They are almost literally scraping the bottom of the barrel.
I had a call recently with O'Reilly, the book publishing company, and they had taken the content of all of their books and offered an MCP server so you can add their knowledge to your coding agent, for a price of course. This sort of signals the same thing to me. We're at the top of the curve right now.
To keep investors happy (or to hide this fact from investors), A.I. companies need to get creative and either:
Cheat their way into getting more original (human written/verified) code.
Lie and say they are intentionally slowing down development.
I'm guessing both of these things are happening right now.
