    Do they not understand an llm would just compile and decompile it into something else, even if the llm itself didn’t understand it?

      They don’t understand how it works. They are probably still complaining about counting the number of R’s in strawberry, from back in 2023.

        Lol he’s a software engineer at cloudflare and was previously at meta. So no matter how much he hates LLMs, both of his employers have dumped boatloads of money into them

          I’ve met a lot of people who previously worked at FAANG, or whatever the acronym is these days, they were not all smart. Actually, most of them couldn’t use a French Press (I exaggerate). Their intelligence comes in creating algorithms that accomplish more capitalism. Outside of the math and the logic there isn’t a lot there.

            Lol my comment was in no way related to his intelligence, though I agree working at a big tech company doesn’t inherently mean you are intelligent. It was purely that if he is vehemently against LLMs he should seek employment outside of big tech
