Claims a concrete workflow: use LLMs to write reusable scripts and training data so runtime inference uses small private classifiers that are faster and cheaper; a new framework called Elf integrates with existing coding assistants, generates UIs from Python recipes, and orchestrates tasks on user‑controlled clusters (Kubernetes) so sensitive data never leaves the environment. It demonstrates auto‑annotating agents that create and validate datasets, LLMs used to build systems not replace them, with measurable wins in latency, cost, and reproducibility.
