Maybe I'm overlooking something but just looking at the past decade or so, a lot of new technologies and practices have been adopted. I assume most people would call these changes progress. So with this in mind, if in 10 years, we're by and large using the same technologies with AI injected in it, I feel that we would be missing something, as this article points out.

It's kind of sad to think that there may never be new technologies like Rust that break out and gain a critical traction. I'm hoping I'm wrong.
