A new paper proposes that software development is undergoing a third major transformation, termed Software 3.0. This evolution moves beyond Software 1.0 (instruction-driven) and Software 2.0 (data-driven machine learning) to a paradigm where context and reasoning are paramount. The paper posits that the future of software will converge into three core components: a generalized database for persistent state, a large model for intelligence and reasoning, and an agent for execution and interaction. AI
