I do believe it’s time for systems folks to take a hard look at building systems abstractions on top of LLMs as they did 50 years ago on top of CPUs. LLMs are the new universal computing machines, but we build with them like we built computers in the 1950s - one computer at a time.

Using LLMs for universal computing would be crazy inefficient. On top of that they aren't deterministic (at the moment) so building systems on top of that would be shaky
