Code isn’t just execution, code is also abstraction. You need to be able to understand requirement => unit of work. Unless you’re an uber geek this mostly isn’t the case and reading and retaining any amount of assembly will be practically impossible. In a wishful world you could simply have a bunch of markdown specifications that are executed as machine code. But specifications are by design usually ambiguous, and so you need to build some level of abstraction to be able to accommodate and still understand that. That’s what code does, or should do

Code is for human consumption. Believe it or not, some of us like to understand how things work.

We still want readable language. We still want code we can check and modify ourselves. For now.

It's not portable and in today's world, you have x86 and ARM to contend with. My argument is that should make Java the default language for LLM output.

Well you can read python, you can't read machine code...
