Oh god, even this article has AI and LLM section in it. When I thought distributed system design could not get any worse, someone actually pitched AI slop in it.

I am not sure that pointing out that today's models are going to be MUCH worse at reasoning about distributed code than serial code is "pitching".
Conversely, pointing out that the reason they are so bad at distributed is the lack of related information locality, the same problem humans often have, puts a reasonable second underline on the value of more locality in our development artifacts.
