I can't believe anyone who values information to any degree would do this.
While I agree with you, I can also believe that a percentage of the execs at AI companies do not value information to any degree.

I have fun programming in Rust... I like building type systems that prevent errors and automate drudgery. Both C++ and Rust let me do that, C does not...you spend a fair amount of time thinking about low-level details of what the compiler is generating. That's true, and I like thinking about memory layouts, cache lines, what the optimizer is going to do
You very convincingly make it sound so fun.
We usually have seen boobs, watched horror movies and tasted alcohol by the age of 14
Have you ever shot an animal?
Computationally, a "wrong" program can be just as valid a result as a "right" program.
I think you have a point you are trying to make, but I cannot figure out what you are trying to say here at all.
If someone is not responsive in the back of a vehicle when the ride ends. the vehicle should just BE DRIVEN TO THE NEAREST EMS LOCATION,
Selfdriving cars cannot drive to every location, they can only drive to somewhere that has been mapped. So they might actually be incapable of doing this.
it would have a far greater chance of creating something Shakespearian
This is fuzzy thinking, "Shakespearean text" is not the same as "text of Shakespeare."
But its likelihood of creating a single Shakespearian work would still be extremely tiny, although not zero.
LLMs only produce text within the parameters they were built. If it was not built to produce a text of Shakespeare, then it won't.
A simple heuristic to understand this is to think of Elizabot. An Elizabot can produce meaningful English text, and has even passed a Turing test. But it will never produce a work of Shakespeare, no matter how long you let it run. It's outside of its parameters. If you don't understand how an Elizabot works, then this example is too much for you.
Documentation is the castor oil of programming. Managers know it must be good because the programmers hate it so much.
