Isn't plugging Wolfram algorithms into LLMs basically their current solution for the DX problem?
As far as society funding research, while I'm quite sympathetic to this view, Wolfram also puts in a significant amount of private dollars into the operationalization of their systems. My guess is there's a whole range of algorithms that aren't prominent enough to publish a paper on nor economically lucrative enough to build a company on that Wolfram products sell.
That said I do think LLM coding agents offer a great way forward to implement more papers on a FOSS manner.
