This was one of my thoughts too. If the pain of using bad frameworks and clunky languages can be mitigated by AI, it seems like the popular but ugly/verbose languages will win out since there's almost no point to better designed languages/framework. I would rather a good language/framework/etc where it is just as easy to just write the code directly. Similar time in implementation to a LLM prompt, but more deterministic.
If people don't feel the pain of AI slop why move to greener pastures? It almost encourages things to not improve at the code level.
