LLMs are reshaping the future of programming languages

The success of AI-generated code relies heavily on the volume and quality of training data. And here’s the kicker: LLMs are trained predominantly on open-source code. That means languages like Python and JavaScript, which dominate GitHub, Stack Overflow, and countless open repositories, give LLMs an unfair advantage in mastering them.

These languages are the lingua franca of open-source innovation. Python powers data science notebooks, web backends, and automation scripts. JavaScript owns the frontend and runs across virtually every website. They’re well-documented, widely discussed, and heavily tested in public.

As a result, LLMs are becoming frighteningly good at generating code in these languages—often faster and more accurately than human developers.

The silent struggle of enterprise languages

On the flip side, enterprise-oriented languages like Java, C#, and frameworks like SwiftUI often live behind closed doors. The codebases are proprietary, the architecture complex, and the public examples few and far between. That means LLMs have less to learn from.

Sure, these languages are still supported—but not with the same richness or depth. The result? AI-generated code in these languages is less reliable, more error-prone, and slower to evolve.

In a world where AI-enhanced productivity is becoming the baseline, these slower-moving ecosystems are at risk of stagnation.

Studies show that LLMs have a strong bias toward Python, using it in 90%–97% of cases for language-agnostic tasks, and even when it’s not the best fit, Python is still chosen in 58% of project initialization tasks

The real threat to developers isn’t no-code—It’s AI-powered peers

Many developers worry that AI will replace them. But the immediate threat isn’t from project managers using drag-and-drop builders. It’s from fellow developers who embrace AI tools, master AI-native languages, and build faster than you ever could manually.

If you’re working in a niche language or framework that AI doesn’t handle well, your velocity drops. Meanwhile, your peer who codes in Python with a Copilot-style assistant is shipping 3x faster, refactoring in seconds, and writing tests in milliseconds.

This isn’t a future scenario—it’s already happening.

What can the developer community do?

If we want to preserve a healthy, diverse programming ecosystem, we can’t leave language survival to chance. Here’s how we can fight for the rest:

  1. Open the gates: Encourage more open-source contributions in enterprise languages. Share code examples, libraries, and real-world apps publicly to enrich LLM training datasets.
  2. Train smaller models on closed code: Within companies, consider training small, private LLMs on your internal Java/C#/Swift codebases to assist your teams effectively.
  3. Invest in language-specific AI tools: Communities around less-represented languages need to build their own Copilots, linters, and smart IDE integrations powered by private or fine-tuned models.
  4. Document aggressively: Rich, high-quality documentation helps LLMs learn. Treat it as a community service that extends your language’s longevity.
  5. Educate and advocate: Spread awareness within your language community about the importance of open data and AI readiness. It’s not just about tooling—it’s about survival.

The rise of AI in development is accelerating certain languages while leaving others behind. It’s a silent selection process driven by data—not by quality, performance, or elegance.

If your favorite language isn’t thriving in the AI era, it’s time to act. Otherwise, we risk a monoculture where only a few AI-favored languages dominate the future of software.

In short: code smarter, share openly, and remember—AI learns what we teach it.

UX has always been about reducing friction

Every major leap in user experience came from removing steps between desire and outcome.

And now? We stand on the edge of the next evolution: autonomous agents acting on our behalf.

From interfaces to intentions

Today’s best UX still relies on you doing the work. You enter data. You compare options. You click through forms. But what if you could simply express your intent, and the system would handle the rest?

That’s what AI agents promise:

This isn’t about convenience. It’s about freeing up cognitive load. And it changes the very idea of what a user experience even is.

But the web is not ready

Recently, we tried to let our AI agents (using Nanobrowser) book a restaurant. It searched fine—but the moment it reached Tripadvisor, the site slapped it with a CAPTCHA.

Why? Because the system flagged it as a bot.

And that’s the core issue: the internet treats AI agents as intruders, not extensions of ourselves.

CAPTCHAs, anti-bot scripts, login flows designed for human eyes—all are remnants of a web built before agentic action was possible.

The UX revolution requires an architecture shift

If we want to move from interfaces to intentions, we need a web that supports agentic interaction at its core.

Here’s what that might look like:

Agent identity & trust
Let users vouch for their agents. Introduce verifiable agent credentials and permission scopes.

🔁 APIs designed for agents
Instead of scraping HTML designed for eyeballs, agents should access standardized, lightweight APIs to perform tasks securely and efficiently.

🤝 Consent-based delegation
Let me tell a website: “Yes, this agent can act on my behalf.” That consent should be cryptographically verifiable and revocable.

🧠 A browser layer made for agents
Just like mobile transformed the web once, agent-first browsers (like Nanobrowser, AutoGPT plugins, or custom headless stacks) will do it again.

From UX to DX (Delegated Experience)

We’re entering the era where UX is not just about how users experience software—but how they delegate action to it. The new metric won’t be “How many clicks to checkout?” but “How much can I offload to my agent without thinking twice?”

This is a big shift. It requires developers, designers, and platform architects to reimagine their stack, their assumptions, and their role in a world where the user is no longer the one doing the clicking.

Who’s building this future?

The agentic UX revolution is being driven by a diverse ecosystem:

Because the future of UX isn’t what users touch.
It’s what they don’t have to touch at all.

In recent years, the European Union has taken major steps to reduce plastic pollution. The EU Single-Use Plastics (SUP) Directive (Directive (EU) 2019/904), effective since July 2021, bans or restricts single-use plastic products and mandates a shift toward reusable alternatives. The Netherlands has implemented this directive with stricter national measures, especially for office environments.

Since 1 January 2024, it is no longer permitted to offer single-use plastic cups, including paper cups with plastic coatings, for drinks consumed on-site. This applies to offices, canteens, hospitality venues, and other locations where beverages are consumed at the premises. Businesses must now provide reusable alternatives, and for takeaway drinks, they are required to offer a reusable option and apply a surcharge for any disposable plastic cups used.

These regulations are transforming the way workplaces think about everyday items like coffee cups—and they’re driving demand for practical, scalable alternatives that reduce waste without adding complexity.

The challenge

Intelligent Reusables approached us with a clear challenge: to develop the software for a smart dispenser system that would allow users to register via their phones and easily dispense reusable cups. The goal was to create a seamless experience that made reuse more convenient than single-use plastic or even bringing one’s own cup.

What we delivered

We built a full-featured reusable cup solution that connects users, smart machines, and operations teams. At the heart of this system is a mobile app developed in React Native, which allows users to quickly register, log in, and interact with the dispenser by scanning a QR code to receive a clean reusable cup. The app also supports push notifications to remind users about returns or provide system updates, and includes WhatsApp Business integration for direct communication and support.

The back-end was developed in Java, using a PostgreSQL database to handle user accounts, transaction history, and stock levels across all dispenser locations. We also built a back-office dashboard that gives Intelligent Reusables real-time insights into system usage, refill needs, and maintenance alerts, empowering their operations team to manage the service efficiently and proactively.

Each dispenser and return bin setup is powered by a Raspberry Pi running a Go-based application. This application handles local logic for dispensing cups, tracks inventory levels, and communicates with the cloud to keep everything in sync. The result is a responsive, real-time system that connects hardware and software seamlessly.

Reusable cup solution

Real-world pilot: Success in Belgium

We conducted a pilot at a client location in Belgium for business validation; two dispenser and bin installations were deployed on site. The feedback from users was overwhelmingly positive. Many reported that they found the system more convenient than bringing and washing their own cups. They appreciated that it worked reliably, was easy to use, and aligned with their values around sustainability. The combination of convenience and environmental impact proved to be a compelling alternative to single-use options.

Enabling the circular office

With the enforcement of EU regulations and growing awareness about the environmental impact of disposables, workplaces are now seeking smarter, more sustainable solutions. Intelligent Reusables has created a system that not only complies with the latest legislation but offers a better experience for users. Our software plays a key role in enabling that system to scale—from pilot programs to broader adoption across offices and public spaces.

What’s next?

Following the success of the pilot, Intelligent Reusables is preparing for a wider rollout. The system is designed to scale easily, with a robust architecture that supports real-time monitoring, smart refill scheduling, and a frictionless user experience. We're proud to support their mission and excited to see this technology help more organizations reduce plastic waste at the source.

Meet the new energy entrepreneurs

Alex, a suburban homeowner, never imagined his rooftop solar panels and home battery could do more than shave a few dollars off his monthly bill. He assumed that once the panels were installed and the appliances switched to “eco mode,” his part was done. Maria, who runs a family‑owned café downtown, focused solely on steady supply and predictable rates—green energy seemed complicated and out of reach.

What Alex and Maria both didn’t realize is that by joining a Virtual Power Plant & (Home) Energy Management System (VPP/(H)EMS), they could turn passive assets into active revenue streams. Instead of simply consuming power, they’d become micro‑grid players: generating, storing, and trading electricity on a dynamic platform—all while lowering their own costs.

Turning assets into opportunity

Imagine Alex’s roof as a mini power station. On sunny afternoons, his solar array produces more energy than his family needs. Rather than sending that surplus back into the void, the VPP/(H)EMS bundles Alex’s excess with thousands of other homes. Together, they bid into ancillary‑services markets—helping the grid balance frequency and voltage. In practice, Alex sees on his dashboard exactly when to store energy in his battery, sell it back to the grid at peak rates, or shift his dishwasher and EV charger to off‑peak hours. His family’s bills drop by 20–30%, and every kilowatt they sell helps avoid firing up a costly, carbon‑spewing peaker plant.

Down the road, Maria’s café taps into the same platform. She programs the VPP to reduce coffee‑machine usage by 10% during morning peak, then automatically ramps it back up when rates fall. Before long, her predictable demand‑response payments offset her monthly supply costs, all while promoting a “green café” image that draws eco‑minded customers.

Why governments and providers are paying attention

For policymakers and utilities, the promise is irresistible: Instead of pouring billions into transmission towers that sit idle 80% of the time, they can harness distributed resources to fill capacity gaps on demand. This approach slashes capital expenditures, accelerates integration of wind and solar, and helps countries lock in CO₂‑reduction targets years ahead of schedule. Real‑time data from the VPP/(H)EMS also empowers regulators to craft smarter dynamic‑tariff programs and reward participants for flexibility, rather than forcing everyone onto one‑size‑fits‑all pricing.

Energy providers, too, gain a new frontier of services. By operating the VPP as a platform, they reduce balancing costs, smooth peak loads, and open fresh revenue channels—selling grid‑stabilization services and green‑energy contracts to clients who once felt shut out of the market.

A win‑win‑win for capacity, costs, and carbon

The numbers speak for themselves: virtual power aggregation can defer the need for new peaker plants for years, cutting capital burdens by up to 40%. Consumers like Alex and Maria routinely see 20–30% savings on bills, plus extra income from selling flexibility. And on a system‑wide level, optimized dispatch of distributed assets can knock 10–15% off total power‑sector CO₂ emissions—an essential wedge if governments are to meet Paris‑aligned goals.

Ready to activate the power in your community?

For government agencies mapping future infrastructure and energy providers seeking to reinvent their offerings, the message is clear: The next big resource isn’t underground—it’s on rooftops, in basements, and behind meter screens. By unlocking the VPP/(H)EMS pathway, we can ensure reliable capacity, cut costs for everyone, and usher in a greener, more resilient energy era—one home and one business at a time.

Curious how your jurisdiction or company can pilot this? Reach out to learn how VPP/(H)EMS platforms are already transforming grids around the world—and how you can be the catalyst in your region.
