Quite flawed, but inspired. This stuff popping up is interesting. I guess it is due to Lean reaching people that would not be aware of formal reasoning on a computer before.

Thank you auggierose. Your comment is by far the best description of the stage of Litex is now: very flawed, but very different from other formal languages. I guess it is because Litex is closer to reasoning (or math in general) rather than to programming.

It's almost as if thinking carefully about words leads to the realisation that words are approximations that are meant to describe, not prescribe.

If "intelligence" describes LLMs then it isn't doing a very good job.

try the bottom half of the population!

That’s a lot of words and anger for such a small thing.

Uh, reasonably? It was simply a point of information, not a dismissal and certainly not a "low brow" one.
