I hear people mentioning that LLMs will cause the death of programmers.
What I don't hear is that LLMs will cause the death of programming languages.
If I'm using an LLM to write my code, why am I using Python or Javascript? What is the point?
As long as my LLM is doing the programming, I might as well have it program in C.
Even further, why not have the LLM program directly in machine code?
There is no need to program in a slow high level programming language if the LLM is doing the programming for me.
