LLM as a Virtual Machine
Explore how Large Language Models can act as virtual machines, simulating systems and executing workflows. See examples of this powerful new computing paradigm in action.
Large Language Models are a new kind computer. They are simulators. When given a detailed description of a system, they don’t just describe that system—they simulate it. OpenProse describes a virtual machine with enough specificity that reading it causes a Prose Complete system to simulate that VM. But simulation with sufficient fidelity is implementation. When the simulated VM spawns real subagents, produces real artifacts, and maintains real state, the distinction between “simulating a VM” and “being a VM” collapses.
I will show examples of OpenProse files simulating a virtual machine and executing workflows. I will use examples involving Recursive Language Models, the Captain’s Chair pattern, and automated PR review.
