I rarely quote Cantrill, but he's absolutely right here about one of the emergent problems of code generation:"The problem is that LLMs inherently lack the virtue of laziness. Work costs nothing to an LLM. LLMs do not feel a need to optimize for their own (or anyone’s) future time, and will happily dump more and more onto a layercake of garbage."https://bcantrill.dtrace.org/2026/04/12/the-peril-of-laziness-lost/
