Why not code in assembly? I kid but any reason you can think of applies to app development too. 1. Good abstractions decrease verbosity and improve comprehension 2. Raw HTML/CSS/JS are out of distribution just like assembly (no one builds apps like this) 3. Humans need to understand and audit it 4. You'll waste time and tokens reinventing wheels This inuitively makes sense. LLMs mimic human behavior and thought, so for all the reasons you'd get lost in a pile of web spaghetti or x86, so would an LLM. | ||
