But you can do all this anyways, this isn’t new or ground breaking.
you can load up Claude Code an a completely empty directory and tell it to build something and it will do it. it’ll do it slowly and most of the time incorrectly but it’ll eventually build “something” that will sort of work. Unless i’m still waiting for my coffee to kick in and I’m missing something here - companies already do this. Hell a lot of my current clients currently do this. no code, nothing to base anything off, just tells Claude an idea for a project and to build it.
Yeah so what I’m getting from the description is that this LLM doesn’t generate code, at all.
This feeds HTTP traffic directly to an LLM that is prompted how to respond to those requests.
This isn’t an LLM being served prompts to write code to create an HTTP server; the model’s output IS the HTTP server. The model itself is being the webserver, instead of being an autocomplete for an IDE.
The author seems to acknowledge that “the future where it’s just us and our LLMs and intent, no code and no apps” is “science fiction” but he wanted to see how close we could get with today’s tech.
Thanks for making this clear. Certainly a fun little experiment, but the shear inefficiency of the whole thing just boggles one’s mind.
Hopefully this is not the direction tech is going though, it’s not like we should curb our energy needs anyway…

ah ok, thanks for explaining that makes sense. yeah I clearly missed it.
