No need for IRs if LLMs are all powerful. Just tell them to generate x86 and ARM and let them get on with it.

Niiice ...
I'll byte the bullet.
Hang on a bit while I register that in my memory.
>generate x86 and ARM
So that hardly anyone can review the machine language output, I guess.
HN users' minds be like:
87.654321 %: JS? yeah. mainhipsterstream. gotta be a part. heart.
smaller %: Rust? wannabe. donno how, u c.
much smaller %: C? oh no ... numeric underflow.
Congrats on moving over to the light side.
If nobody can review it that's fine since we'll be generating at least 50k LOC per day and nobody could review that anyhow. We can just get every other LLM model to review the output. What can go wrong?
