This amounts to saying ‘how dare someone publish some code that they wrote!’

Is it your impression that this is being pitched as some grand solution?

That this was published as a way to shut out other people from doing the same thing in other ways?

Can’t we just look at a cool thing someone did, and released for other people to play with, and say ‘huh! That’s neat!’ And get inspired?

except it's not neat or novel, this idea has been around and implemented for many months now, by many people, using many methods. Running a tool on the output and then feeding that back to the LLM, also not novel and a widely used technique

People can debate till the cows come home. But it's worth remembering that hacker news is about stimulating intellectual curiosity.

There's no reason for this to have a fixed flow, either - it's got a hint of diagonalizability to it - by which I mean, you can get the model to build a schema for dynamic flows, given a 'bootstrapping' schema. No different than what has always had to happen for someone to write a compiler for a programming language in the language itself.
