@cstross I hope he brings Kosmo with him. Always fun to watch live.

@jscholes I think it is both? LLMs are good at translating. You can tell them „look at this function and struct, now make a vector cross product function that works with the datatypes you just saw.“ and it will work well. Replace cross product with some other not-too-complex function that the LLM has seen in a different language and/or with different datatypes. It will be able to „translate“ the structure of the code into the new requirements.
