Brett Taylor, among others, has speculated that if increasingly large language models rather than humans write software, then the current programming languages we have, which are designed for humans for readability, writeability, maintainability, type safety, memory safety, and so on, will not really make sense.

This is an experimental language designed for a world of large language model code generators. Sure, it won’t be the last, but it’s the first that I’ve heard of.
