"we can't put the [generative ai] genie back in the bottle" actually we can, it's very easy, these things are not something anyone can just make or run, they require absurd amounts of data and computing resources

Voyager 1 is running on less memory than a single photo in your camera roll—69 KB. Its data is saved to an 8-track tape & software was developed when "the cloud" was in the sky. NASA sends commands and the old thing answers. And yet your brand new laptop freezes because you opened too many tabs.

so many tedious debugging hours could be avoided by simply being able to see math operations clearly, but for some reason we're teaching computers to program themselves instead

anyway i've been perishing trying to implement an RK4 integrator in unity ecs, starting to think it was not made for this, or maybe i just suck at designing the system
