💻 AI code generation is turning into a real market

🔸 Analysts estimate the global market at $5.8B in 2025. Forecasts put it at $7.2B this year, with a projected path to $52B by 2035 at a 24.6% CAGR.

🔸 The smoothness of these curves deserves skepticism. Real markets rarely grow that cleanly for a decade.

🔸 Still, AI code generation is already embedded in daily developer workflows. That makes its impact on software labor costs a structural question, not a theoretical one.

Anthropic puts $1.5M into Python and open source security

🔸 Anthropic signed a 2 year partnership with the Python Software Foundation, committing a total of $1.5M.

🔸 The focus is PyPI security and core infrastructure. One planned move is AI based scanning of every uploaded package. Today, most checks happen only after users report problems.

🔸 The first step is building a large dataset of known malware, with a chance it becomes open source.

This targets the weakest link in modern software supply chains.

📱 Apple bundles its creative apps and takes aim at Adobe

Apple announced Creator Studio, a single subnoscription for Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Pixelmator Pro, Motion, Compressor, and MainStage.

🔸 Price is $12.99 per month or $129 per year. Education pricing drops to $2.99. Adobe Creative Cloud Pro costs $69.99 per month, with Photoshop alone at $22.99.

🔸 Final Cut, Logic, and Pixelmator run on Mac and iPad. Motion, Compressor, and MainStage stay Mac only. Advanced features for Keynote, Pages, and Numbers are included.

Apple keeps one time purchases available. Adobe removed that option years ago.

This is pricing pressure first.
AI integration likely comes later.
