NVIDIA repurposes Python's Ellipsis literal for LLM dispatch

NVIDIA's NOOA framework utilizes Python's `Ellipsis` literal (`...`) as a runtime dispatch marker. This allows methods with `...` bodies to be completed by a large language model at runtime, distinguishing them from deterministic Python code. This approach provides a greppable boundary between developer-controlled code and LLM-controlled code. AI

IMPACT This implementation could offer a novel way to integrate LLMs into existing Python codebases, enabling dynamic code completion for specific functions.
