Could you build this?
Partial While prompting LLMs to generate static code is straightforward, building an actual deterministic compiler architecture that uses an LLM reliably for intermediate representations requires novel parsing and validation techniques.
What it would actually take: The project requires a compiler pipeline (using Rust or Python) where the LLM is leveraged for translation or synthesis stages bounded by formal grammars, AST verification, and strict schema enforcements. The hard part is ensuring deterministic outputs, correctness verification, and handling compilation errors iteratively without infinite loops or runtime hallucinations.
