Gaslight-driven development
Large Language Models are increasingly influencing API design decisions by consistently suggesting certain patterns and method names, forcing developers to adapt their APIs to match AI expectations. Companies like Soundslice and Instant have added features or modified their APIs because LLMs kept referencing non-existent functionality or preferred alternative naming conventions. While this creates a feedback loop where AI shapes the tools it uses, it may also push developers toward more conventional, predictable API designs rather than innovative approaches.
