dabbled with wolfram alpha: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_P9HqHVPeik
from my experiments in the summer at recurse-center, i understand that a.i. is just another form of computational-abstraction. for example:
writing a dynamically allocated memory system in c is painful, but easier in javascript.
wolfram alpha would probably take one line (because they pre-program famous computational-algorithms into the language).
chat-gpt would be another level higher in abstraction. write normal-language, and express yourselves computationally.
when i write code in javascript, i am already succumbing to the abstraction provided by javascript (say dynamically increasing the size of an array). so why is programming through an l.l.m. any different?
that’s a valid argument. i wonder at what point the ‘essence’ of code disappears as you move into higher levels of abstraction.
