> I teach computer science and have a particular fondness for introductory CS. The reason Stephen Wolfram is wrong, wrong, wrong about this is that people that have never been taught programming can't express themselves precisely enough in their native language, either; and even among those of us that have been programming for decades, when we express ourselves in natural language we can be very precise but it takes a lot more work and becomes a lot more unwieldy than just writing out our instructions in [pseudo]code.
I used to think the same thing, but I what changed my mind was the noticable increase in precision that came with ChatGPT 4. Before I felt like a monkey - not I actually get things done they way "I intended".

People are having a discussion about the ability of LLM to generate correct code from imprecise natural language descriptions and how good GPT4 was at that and your rebuke is that it can't do cutting edge algorithm research and an unnecessary ad hominem.
