If the task is to build something that requires abstractions, sure. But the article in question is in GPU-optimization-land, which happens to be an extremely verifiable and hill-climbable domain. Look at recent GPU programming competitions and find that top-10 solutions are completely generated. In general the field of compilers is in a crisis because why wait for compilations when you can just generate the end result and hill- climb it. I am kind of in the middle of this and I see it going toward LLM-hill-climbers by the day.
