> We don’t read assembly either any more.

Speak for yourself? In absolute terms there are probably more people reading assembly now than in its heyday.

Moreover, assembly isn't generated, it's compiled, which is a completely different (and more reliable) process than generating source.

You are mistaken. People totally do read and write assembly.

You can determine and justify the reasons why generated assembly is generated because it's made by a deterministic machine. How is an LLM's output deterministic and justifiable? How can one hold anyone to account what spews out by a large language model?

Do you review and approve plaintext plans in your org and ship whatever output Claude outputs that passes the CI to prod without further review? Because that's what we do for assembly.
