the way I kinda know this is the product of C-Suite and not a low-level software engineer is that the syntax is mallocPlusAI and not aimalloc or gptmalloc or llmalloc.
and it’s malloc, why are we doing this for things we’re ultimately just putting on the heap? overshoot a little–if you don’t know already, it’s not going to be perfect no matter what. if you’re going to be this annoying about memory (which is not a bad thing) learn rust dipshit. they made a whole language about it
if they’re proposing it as a C stdlib-adjacent method (given they’re saying it should be an alternative to malloc [memory allocate]) it absolutely should be lowercase. plus is redundant because you just append the extra functionality to the name by concatenating it to the original name. mallocai [memory allocate ai] feels wrong, so ai should be first.
if this method idea wasn’t an abomination in and of itself that’s how it would probably be named. it currently looks straight out of Java. and at that point why are we abbreviating malloc. why not go the distance and say largeLanguageModelQueryingMemoryAllocator

holy fuck that’s so good
wait is this just the e = mc2 + AI bit repackaged
I think this is the first solo
I’ve seen and it’s beautiful

I might call it like, malloc_ai so it’s like, I INVOKE MALACHI lol
snake_case is valid, I’m just operating on the assumption that these rubes want it to be stdlib-adjacent
Well come to think of it, we did find out that certain snakes are standard lib-adjacent in disguise
