I'll go a step further and say Claude is an Interpreter.
It even has just-in-time compilation: it can directly follow a spec and generate small snippets live.
I'm pretty sure we'll soon see services (admittedly highly inefficient) built on Claude-as-a-backend.
Why inefficient? If Claude continuously makes the system more efficient based on demand, there's no reason for the system to be less efficient than if it was managed by humans.
I believe they mean Claude does the work directly, rather than writing software to do it.
Yes, Claude, please make the system as efficient as possible. Make no mistakes
It's not. It's a cargo cult developer that produces more code than you can review and confidently pushes bugs to prod.
