This opens up so many interesting opportunities. In principle one could compile a small VM inside the LLM weights. The VM can host for example a Python interpreter, a shell and tools like sed, cat, grep etc. Instead of LLMs having to do slow autoregressive token emission with the current "external" tool calling, it could literally execute everything except web search, inside the LLM, with just matmul operations. You could probably optimise this so it runs in batches. You could have a gdb like application that can step through the LLM forward pass
