It's the classic hammer & nail situation. If react is all you know, every problem looks like it's a great fit for react. Replace react with just about anything else that was once popular and you'll find some programmers are out there still trying to wack nails with that hammer.
Technically, react is already a bit conservative and maybe past its glory. I don't think it's actually that cool anymore. I've lived through a few hype cycles in technology and this one is starting to feel a bit stale. The whole community seems stuck in a "maybe this will work ... nope" loop where they keep on "fixing" statefulness of their apps, untangling the unholy mess of CSS from their business logic, fixing performance issues, etc. That's been going on for nearly a decade now.
Of course the notion of using chat-gpt to "fix" state handling is a bit ludicrous. Sounds to me like a "maybe this will work?" type of thing.
Chatgpt is the new hammer here. And it looks like there's a wide category of nails it can wack. The right ambition level is figuring out just how big those nails are. I'd say, a more valid question to ask would be if something like chat gpt could generate a complete working UI and backend given a few prompts. I don't care if it's done in react or angular or whatever. As long as it works and the AI can iterate on it.
