"It’s never going to work as well as actually running X. It’s just for fun." You must realize that X was also built by some kind of neural networks, i.e. humans, and the only reason we can't run an entire Linux kernel "in our heads" is mostly due to hardware, i.e. brains, limitations. Although, I do remember Brian Kernighan saying in an interview how he was able to run entire C programs "in his head" faster than the 1980s CPUs.

The point is that the future programming language will probably be the human language as an extremely high-level specification language, being able to hallucinate/invent/develop entire technological stacks (from protocols to operating systems to applications) on the fly.
