I would like to hijack the "high level language" term to mean dopamine hits from using an LLM.
"Generate a Frontend End for me now please so I don't need to think"
LLM starts outputting tokens
Dopamine hit to the brain as I get my reward without having to run npm and figure out what packages to use
Then out of a shadowy alleyway a man in a trenchcoat approaches
"Pssssttt, all the suckers are using that tool, come try some Opus 4.6"
"How much?"
"Oh that'll be $200.... and your muscle memory for running maven commands"
"Shut up and take my money"
----- 5 months later, washed up and disconnected from cloud LLMs ------
"Anyone got any spare tokens I could use?"
