AI codes with outdated libraries. Why is this unsolved?

​ @mehdio  and Dumky work through a round of data and AI news, starting with Analytics Tycoon, a browser game where you run a data team on a fixed budget and lose trust points every time a cron job breaks. Then the uncomfortable stuff: Python 3.15 is at release candidate while 3.10 is still the number two download and goes end of life in two months, your agent keeps writing 3.11 because it does not know what day it is, Stripe is reportedly circling OpenRouter for 10 billion dollars, and data modeling turns out to be very much alive once you try to replace it with a context layer.
