I’m not saying LLMs will follow the same evolution, but its conceivable

But eventually, compilers became so good that they could produce machine-code far better than any human could

And there probably would have been programmers that used compilers to produce machine-code, that they then reviewed and tweaked directly

But you must admit that there 100% would have been assembly programmers that lamented the slop that early compilers produced

Psst. Just having a laugh. I found the analogy thought provoking. Them main difference is that compilers a deterministic (for the most part) whereas LLMs… 🤪

When something goes wrong in production with machine-code the compiler produces, do you troubleshoot the source code, or the machine-code?

Maybe the wildest part to me about the compilers is people acting like the machine-code itself just doesn’t matter anymore, now that we have this new abstraction of source code.

Great talk today @web-goddess.org
There’s so much about it that resonated, but my favourite part was when you talked about observability in the context of observing your finances.
