Curl is a command line utility people use to make requests to web servers. It seems like a simple service, but can be complex behind the scenes. And like all software, it needs to be maintained for security and bugs and such. These are reported when found by developers. But recently, they are also being reported by AI, even in cases where there's no bug. So that's a problem, and that's what this article talks about.
But I was thinking yesterday, if we're in a world where AI does most if not all of our programming, why do we require software libraries any more? Just have the AI create exactly and only what we need. Libraries are useful for human coders, but they are much less useful for AI. The AI uses the package only because it has seen so many humans do it, but if told not to use a package, it could just create the code from scratch. Couldn't it?
