No, code is a way of communicating ideas, or more correctly information. All languages convey information. All languages convey ideas.

Did you read past the first sentence? The kind of information that a piece of code transmits is fundamentally different from that which is transmitted by a sentence or a song.
Yes, though I would take it in a different direction and say that LLMs are better at putting actual ideas into code. They've never gotten real feedback on how their literary metaphor feels, but they have gotten very direct feedback on whether code runs at all, and slightly more indirect feeds on whether it runs as part of the larger system.
So code that is written which plays music, yes people do live code music, doesnt count?
An elegant algorithm or intentionally inelegant one do not speak or communicate ideas? Please, keep hairsplitting.
Sir. You’re wrong and wrong on the internet. Two capital offenses. For shame.
You're being purposefully dense and I'm not going to engage with you.
No I am not but you came across in the last reply aggressive so i tried to lighten the mood a bit. This is the internet and people can disagree. It is fine.
I dont think you are reading my point at all and are instead getting worked up. If you disagree, fair.
I think a heavy argument needs to be made to say that code or programming languages do not carry ideas for me to change my mind on it. Id be happy to engage in good spirit but you seem pretty set in stone there.
