That's a post I am eagerly waiting to read.

Basically we are seeing now an "inverse Hofstadter's Law" where doing something with an LLM takes less time thanexpected even when you take into account this law.

I am a Rust developper myself but I really love Zig and Bun. I am just overly curious of all this.

Even LLMs themselves can't accurately estimate this (though this may be out of distribution stuff)

LLMs have no conception of time, unless you explicitly feed in timestamps to the context

It doesn't stop LLMs provide "this feature set will require 4 months to finish" (and then finishing it one hour)

Sorry yeah, I meant to say LLMs have no concept of time, so time estimates they give are almost always hallucinations

Scotty from Star Trek does approve!
