Replace hardcoded logic with cheap, machine-native model execution
◆ 85RelevanceOn a story from Tomasz Tunguz1mo ago
If basic programming logic becomes model-driven and orders of magnitude cheaper, you can inject intelligence into granular code paths previously too expensive for LLMs. This shifts the unit economics of adding 'smart' backend features from a luxury to a commodity.
Takeaways
- Machine-native models offer massive cost reductions over traditional token-based LLMs.
- Typed execution provides more reliable logic than standard natural language generation.
- Re-evaluate your architecture to inject intelligence into basic programming primitives.
