ok but it's an odd take for a tech site like hacker news i mean what does that say about the llm paradigm vs for example object oriented paradigm or functional programming paradigm were they just playing around before and now it's getting real? were they deliberately doing toy things before and now the adults are in the room making real computation systems with actual consequences for the real world and not just nerds playing with toys or what? Like does this mean that it will completely obsolete the works of boffins like simon peyton jones and those other esoteric languages and everyone will talk to their computers in english language and the ones that will be the most effective computer enjoyers will be the high emotional intelligence salesmen? were they going in wrong direction for so long on purpose because they didn't want to awaken the real power of the computers for ethical reasons, or were they trying to do this the whole time but they weren't smart enough to figure it out?
