May I point out that we don't know in detail how most code runs? Not talking about assembly, I am talking about edge cases, instabilities, etc. We know the happy path and a bit around it. All complex systems based on code are unpredictable from static code alone.

We know at least quite well how it runs if we look at the code. But we know almost nothing about how a specific AI model works. Looking at the weights is pointless. It's like looking into Beethoven's brain to figure out how it came up with the Moonshine sonata.
