I'm pretty sure, the training/fine tune through Claude/OpenAi would not be possible without the army/China's hacking teams (and legal protection). So it's more than just a cheap electricity.

50or05on I accidentally turned LLM memory into program analysis

I would not necessarily call it genetic programming. But you can discover the same pattern e.g. for human knowledge. We have a domain language for math and when we go deeper we will have domain language for algebra, discrete math etc.. and we could go even further to breaking it to even for more specific areas simply to compact the information to deliver. The goal is more and precise information with less words, it might be for communication or to be able to fit the knowledge into the processing capacity. So for me it is not like the advances in programing languages, but more like to compacting information/representation with domain language. It's similar but not quite genetic programming.
