Gotta love reading ostensibly technical articles in the AI age. 1. Oh, this is an interesting problem 2. Asserts that it is possible to implement 3. How will it be implemented? 4. “I don’t know how but soon AI will”[1] 5. (Bonus) Recurrence of author’s own term that he “coined” in a one-minute read blog article What is even the point? I too want stuff, vaguely. I can’t implement any of it though. What about this compiler optimization that I want? I could write an article about it because soon-AI. There’s already plenty of interesting things you can say on this topic without invoking spooky LLMs. 1. Transforming abbreviations/initialisms/contractions back and forth 2. Transform inline numbered list to numbered list block 3. Switch between parenthetical remark and footnote remark I don’t know, maybe those things aren’t interesting. Maybe just pedestrian. But it seems easy enough to support in a structured format and I’ve never seen it before. Why not? Maybe I’m too Programming 1.0. I like conceptual problems that can be grasped. I don’t like black box technology. [1] For some reason I can’t select the text in the article. The text… and I can’t be bothered to copy from the source.
