It will be interesting to see what happens when more individuals with legitimate expertise in two or more non-software fields build tools that rely upon that intersection of deep, specific knowledge. I wonder how long it will take for AI to really begin encouraging a pursuit of generalist-style learning, as opposed to the specialist inclination that's ingratiated into nearly all formal institutions.
That's maybe not what the author was getting at, but that's what I came away with anyway.
- idrdex 6mo agoThat’s exactly what I’m getting at. LLMs have abstracted computation itself. In fact LLMs are a step back from computation. They are in essence a state machine. A prompt goes in and a response comes out. CANONIC is a language to extend that across a tree of governance towards a complex gated state machine that must be compliant. https://hadleylab.org/blogs/2025-12-29-the-compiler-insight/ https://hadleylab.org/blogs/2025-12-29-the-compiler-insight/
