Here's my take on the future here: With AI, code is disposable. The only reason to "maintain" instead of rebuild before was sunk cost and the time it used to take to build something. But AI can cut that cost to a fraction and make it more worth your time to just rebuild (and this will only get more true over time). If it gets too broken, throw the codebase away and make a new one. No more ten-year-old codebases that have been "maintained" to the point of obsolescence! It's a new paradigm.

In that case, it’s valuable to save the prompts for future use in case of rebuilding it? 👀
possibly, though as time progresses, so will your prompting skills. maybe save really long ones for future tweaking.
We already did this with perl ;)
I'm not against AI coding like begging today. But this note, specially the last part, can only have 2 reasons:
1. Super low understanding of software development and engineering.
2. Making some hype for what they are building.
Anyway, that's not the best thing you can say. At least at the moment.
