Interesting conversation developing in the IT world where people are now suggesting using LLMs to create a specific library instead of relying on a third party module. (in reaction to recent spike in opensource supply chain attacks)
To be honest, I agree with this approach. More than that, I think this logic should be applied much more broadly.
I wrote about this a few weeks back: https://blog.anantshri.info/vendors-sell-suites-teams-need-slices-ai-made-it-cheap/
If reading just the title gives you the urge to yell that this is the wrong approach, read the article first. It is not a potshot. It is a more nuanced argument.
What is funny is that some of the same people who disagree with that article are perfectly comfortable shouting “replace open source with your own code” in other contexts.
That should force a pause.
If you disagree with my article but keep arguing that teams should replace open source with code they control, then you may want to re-examine what your actual strategy is.
