I swear someone will eventually come down in an anti-gravity belt to deliver fresh mangoes just shipped half an hour ago via Starship from Pakistan, and the comments will be that “it’s not that impressive” :D

The training material has been around since the start, but we are just now reaching the point where LLMs can autonomously code complex software that works; this would take an engineer days to make, with access to the same training material. I bet 99% of devs couldn’t even complete the window manager alone in under 24 hours, let alone a snake game + shell and python interpreters + paint + text editor.

Except once something is done and out on the internet, it would not take the human that amount either. LLMs can create novel code from instructions now, so I am mostly criticizing it as LLMs routinely do better.
