As "jit" to you means running code, and not "building and executing machine code", maybe you could vibe code this. And enjoy the segfaults.
In a way he's making sense. If the "code" is the prompt, the output of the llm is an intermediate artifact, like the intermediate steps of gcc.
So why should we still need gcc?
The answer is of course, that we need it because llm's output is shit 90% of the time and debugging assembly or binary directly is even harder, so putting asides the difficulties of training the model, the output would be unusable.
Probably too much snark from me. But the gulf between interpreter and compiler can be decades of work, often discovering new mathematical principles along the way.
The idea that you're fine to risk everything, in the way agentic things allow [0], and want that messing around with raw memory is... A return to DOS' crashes, but with HAL along for the ride.

Ah don't worry, llms are a return to crashes as it is :)
The other day it managed to produce code that made python segfault.
