These might be of interest to software developers but it's all just style nothing here actually effects the computation. The problem I encounter with LLMs is that they are incapable of doing anything but rehearsing the same algorithms you get off of blogs. I can't even successfully force them to implement a novel algorithm they will simply deny that it is valid and revert back to citing their training data.

I don't see LLMs actually furthering the field in any real way ( even if by accident, since they can't actually perform deductive reasoning).
