I hope this isn't the future of "new" languages. Hopefully newer AI tools can actually learn a language and they won't be the limiting factor.

I’m more interested in what happens when a language is designed specifically for llms? When doing vibe coding a lot of code is a lot more verbose than I’d do normally. Do we drop down the abstraction level because llms are just so good a churning out boilerplate?

I think as ai tools actually learn languages that functional languages will win out as they are much easier to reason about.

it’s easy enough for them as soon as they have an RL environment for the language

This is the answer. We need online learning for our own code bases and macros.
