<p>This is so wildly incorrect I don't even know where to start.<p>For one, as you said yourself, they were just programmed to compute the probability of the next token. They were not programmed to play chess, chess games just happened to be in the training data.<p>For another, there is no formal definition of "understand", and it is therefore impossible to tell whether or not they "understand". 
(But my claim was that one need to understand something to write poem about it. And the LLM can write poem about it)</p>

<p>I'm order to guess the next token in a love poem, they must understand love.
In order to predict the next token in a chess game between grand master, they must master chess.
In order to predict the next token in a computer program, they need to be able to program anything.<p>They gain all these abilities in their training. That's what training does. Despite no one programmed them to master chess, or hack into anything.</p>

<p>Web UI is fine for web applications, obviously.<p>But for desktop applications it is bloated, a big attack surface.<p>HTML/CSS is made for online documents, and using it for applications is a bit hack that happen to work, but hides a huge ton of complexity behind frameworks and frameworks of frameworks with leaky abstractions and each their own caveat.</p>

<p>They optimise for natural. So you can still have pesticides and herbicides. If you find your poison in some plant, it is fine. If you synthetize the same molecule in a factory, then it's not allowed.<p>As for the animal welfare, true, but there are also labels specifically for that that.</p>

"Natural" doesn't mean healthy or good for the environment. 
It is only greenwashing and "appeal to nature" fallacy</p>

<p>Because users and community contributors most likely already have an account, are familiar with the UI.<p>There is also the "gamification" aspect that GitHub have. Doesn't motivate me personally, but could have effect on some others.<p>Projects on GitHub gets a lot more visibility. 
To the point that many projects that do not use GitHub as their main forge are still often mirroring their repository there, and have to deal with double source of bug reports or pr.</p>

<p>I guess the point is that there is no need for humans to read the code.<p>How often do you read assembly to check what your compiler is doing?<p>There is a niche of people doing it when they have special constraints, but that's a tiny niche.</p>
