Will there be 1 and only programming language?
A Reddit user speculates about the future of programming languages, suggesting that if large language models (LLMs) are writing most of the code, there might be a shift towards a single, AI-specific language. This language would allow developers to describe desired functionality and constraints, with the compiler handling the implementation, potentially integrating various existing languages like Go, Java, and SQL as needed. The user expresses a preference for learning one such comprehensive language over mastering multiple languages and frameworks, viewing it as a logical development for major AI labs.
This Reddit discussion uniquely proposes a future where AI uses a single, AI-specific language, unlike current LLM practices that generate code in multiple existing languages.
