Intuitively I expect this. Go is a language designed by Rob Pike to keep legions of high IQ Google engineers constrained down a simple path. There's generally one way to do it in Go.

As a human programmer with creative and aesthetic urges as well as being lazy and having an ego, I love expressive languages that let me describe what I want in a parsimonious fashion. ie As few lines of code as possible and no boilerplate.

With the advances in agent coding none of these concerns matter any more.

What matters most is can easily look at the code and understand the intent clearly. That the agent doesn't get distracted by formatting. That the code is relatively memory safe, type safe and avoids null issues and cannot ignore errors.

I dislike Go but I am a lot more likely to use it in this new world.

The most striking thing about Go codebases is that, for the most part (there are exceptions), they all look the same. You can choose a random repository on GitHub and be hard-pressed to not think that you wrote it yourself. Which also means that LLMs are likely to produce code that looks like you wrote it yourself. I do think that is one thing Go has going for it today.

But for how long will it matter? I do wonder if programming languages as we know them today will lose relevance as all this evolves.
