Soulless multinationals often want to share costs with other soulless multinationals, just like individuals do. So I think there will always be publicly shared code. The real question is whether this code will be worth much if it can be implemented so quickly by a machine.

Implementation is only one of the costs shared through open-source projects.

There are others, such as security vulnerability detection, support, & general maintenance.
