Hey! The idea isn't to replace the compiler with an LLM, the tech is not there yet. Where we see value is in using these models to guide an existing compiler. E.g. orchestrating optimization passes. That way the LLM won't break your code, nor will the compiler (to the extent that your compiler is free from bugs, which can tricky to detect - cf Sec 3.1 of our paper).
