I think open source might benefit a lot from being so easy for LLMs to provide answers for. Hopefully they’ll be able to reason straight from the source code.

I've had GPT3 give me the wrong answers to questions. Then I google the topic, find the documentation and go "hm, yeah, I can see how it would think that." For instance, ask it what `set +o` does in Bash, then check the online docs.
