alt Hacker NewsI don't think that will happen anytime soon. Prompts are the code now, and programming languages code is compilation product. Almost nobody optimizes compiled assembly code.
Perhaps "recompilation" - rewrite by replaying all prompts in strict code quality context (linters, complexity & dedup checks) would make better abstractions.
The only problem now is that LLMs are non-deterministic.

Compiled assembly code is not an input to the next compilation; source code is an input to the LLM's next inference.
Sure, maybe "prompts are the code," but you must realize that code is also the prompt.
