> Does this mean people will be less incentivized to contribute to open source as time goes by?

personally, I completely stopped 2 years ago

it's the same as the stack overflow problem: the incentive to contribute tends towards zero, at which point the plagiarism machine stops improving




Same. It'll be interesting to see when open source slows down enough and is maybe all but eliminated...how will things advance?

Once everyone uses AI. How will anything new come about?

AI could quite possibly slow down innovation and improvement.
