We’ve been trying to abstract hardware since… C. We’ve had much better virtual machines, but they never catch on.
Adoption is a feature you can’t design.
But for LLMs digging any deeper than they already have, lol no. Microsoft bet the farm and demanded a whole new keyboard key. People see it as an unreliable convenience at best. It’s not getting any better until after the bubble pops.
We’ve been abstracting away hardware details since the invention of punchcards. “Assembly code” is a remarkably high level abstraction above microcode, which is a remarkably high abstraction above logic gate arrays.
