The fact that lan­guage models are great at code means there is sud­denly a strong incen­tive for more things to become code. Like: very strong. The majority of valu­able work can’t be refor­mu­lated in this way; see: the olive harvest. But plenty can be, and plenty is on the cusp, and the cuspy work will feel intense pres­sure to go 100% code.
