Dev: I'd rather write dumb utils to parallelize torch trainers than use LLMs for the code
cephaloform · x · 2026-10-01
A developer shares a workflow insight: instead of explaining general parallelization concepts to an LLM, he finds it easier to implement a bs=1 version of a trainer and simply say "parallelize this" — the code is the explanation. He predicts this ends with him building unintelligent utilities to automatically parallelize torch trainers, not using LLMs for the code at all, and doubts LLMs will replace code-as-explanation "until they have electrodes in my brain."
