Radar Trends to Watch: July 2024
Can anything that is programmable have an embedded LLM? Apparently so. llama.ttf is a plain old font that looks like OpenSans—you can download it and install it. We don’t know whether this is a massive vulnerability or a way to embed AI in almost any text-based application. Probably both.
It may just be a coincidence, but several new programming languages have come on the scene in the past month or two. Why? This probably isn’t backlash against automated programming (an LLM obviously can’t be trained for a language without much public source code).
