Because agents learn outdated Modal syntax from training data, Modal has become more cautious about removing or deprecating features.

“And I mean, a, a very concrete thing that is kind of funny is that we've actually seen that like because of agent training data- It's very hard to deprecate things now.”

“Uh, we see that, like, agents often, like, love using, you know, old versions of modal syntax, and, and it's kinda hard to nudge them away from that.”

“So, so we've actually had to be a little bit more conservative going forward, like, you know, uh, over the last year or so with, with how we deprecate or remove features.”
