   Two people from Meta/Facebook took some trivial programs, used LLMs to   
   add code that should be optimized away, and looked for compiler   
   crashes or suspicious increases in object code size. They found a   
   bunch of optimization bugs.   
      
   Previous code mutators have been large and complex, but this one using an   
   LLM is 150 lines of code.
