Regarding the survey's mention of AI tool usage, I wonder what if the adoption of advanced AI assistants fundamentally shifts how we approach best practices and module evaluation in Go, making some current pain points disapear?
Great point. AI assistants will likely reduce friction around Go best practices and dependency evaluation by making it easier to understand unfamiliar code and packages quickly. But they won't fully eliminate the underlying trust issues: long-term maintenance, security posture and ecosystem stability still require human judgment. In other words, AI can speed up evaluation but it can't replace confidence.
