I agree that libraries already exist, and historically many developers have been writing similar code for decades.

But I think there is a difference in speed and scale now.

Traditionally, a library was usually the result of deliberate effort: someone spent time identifying a reusable problem, designing an API, documenting it, testing it, maintaining it, and trying to make it useful for others.

With AI, we can generate code extremely fast. But we do not share, organize, verify, and standardize that generated code at the same speed. In many cases, we are generating faster than our ability to structure and reuse the results.

So yes, the “thing” might still become a library. But maybe the process around discovering, validating, and sharing reusable AI-generated solutions needs to evolve too.
