What on Earth do people DO with computers that requires this level of complexity?
It just seems like computers could have stopped in 1989 and I struggle to see what the difference would be.
Material science simulations, Weather and climate modeling, Protein and genetic analysis and modeling, Video games and CGI, Logistics and scheduling
Agentic code review, which is likely the source of this case.
Eh, 2003 or so would have been a good peak, IMO.
