Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

Stan's days are likely numbered. High-end applications are replacing Stan with JAX. The biggest obstacle for the shift is finding hardware on which to run JAX most effectively, but this won't be a problem in ten years. The Stan project will continue development, as it will likely still be used for a long time. The team has plenty of strategies for making it faster, like adding samplers that will work well on CPU but not on GPU.
