I have a feeling you didn’t understand the question I was asking. Ilms are just one type of algorithm and data structure. There’s other algorithms nearly all programers use to compile symbolic code Into assembly or machine code (binary), they’re called compilers. Anyone who isn’t writing assembly or machine code directly is likely using a compiler.
Your question is confusing to me, I know what compilers are but I’m not sure how that is super related to llm’s. I was just saying that people use llm’s for reasons aside from generating code.
ooh wait nevermind, I realise what you meant now. Your comparing compilers to llm’s since they both are algorithms that turn an input into an output. Is this what you meant?

I got the comparison from Linus Torvalds talk but yes and depending on the compiler and it’s use the output might not be so deterministic.
The guy is an idiot and is comparing compilers to llms.
If I’m an idiot then so is Linus Torvalds the creator or the Linux kernel.
