These are the monkeys with typewriters that will write Shakespeare.
Maybe some day they will do it before the sun explodes. But we will run out of bananas first.

Does it count if an LLM is generating mountains of code that then gets thrown away? Maybe he can win the prediction on a technicality.

Ah, but I bet those monkeys produce more text than Shakespeare! At least within the last 6 months!
The joke is that Shakespeare is dead and no longer producing text.

That’s exactly what I thought when I saw it. Big difference between “creating 90% of code” vs “replacing 90% of code” when there’s an absolute deluge of garbage being created.
