While it's great now, my worry is that these apps will start to rot as the platforms and infra they run on advance forward, then developers will be on the hook for migrating them.

Although if they were HTML/JS/CSS with no dependencies you could argue that might be quite bullet proof since browsers have an unmatched record of backward compatibility.

With change management they can be informed of platform / infra and be autonomous to upgrade their app. They usually are in the loop if they have ownership, or will be after it happens a few times.

Also I believe the value is in the output, not the app itself. ROI of a 1 hour AI slop should™ be attained before it rots and they can just spun up a new one.

I might be hopeful and a bit selfish here, I expect my colleagues to own their toolbox.
