> Our implementation uses Highway's portable SIMD functions, so we do not have to re-implement about 3,000 lines of C++ for each platform.

Would they do the same thing today or have an LLM re-implement those 3000 lines of c++ ?

Id say that it is a lot more likely for the in-house, at least half a decade old library to be correct and performant than 3000 lines of an LLMs mediocre regurgitation of that code.

Guys, remember when language features allowed re-usability?
