From a justice perspective, this is my clumsy metaphor for coin-operated LLM-driven software development:
The commercial sports industry—exemplified by FIFA/IOC, the World Cup, and corruption of public works—is not sport in exactly the same way that the commercial music industry is not music. Anyone can pick up (or make out of old socks!) a ball, gather friends, and play a sport. Or pick up an instrument and teach themselves to make music with friends.
And so it is with writing our own code.
