Au contraire if typescript and rust didn’t steal the whole show it’d be a great time to be a lisp LLM pilot: agents can explain pretty much everything without any confabulations nowadays, so the understanding problem essentially goes away, if you care, which is exactly the point of the article if you ask me.

But at that point why use Lisp (which LLMs have been so far still to struggle to get matching parens every now and then)

What made Lisp cool and powerful goes away when you do it through an LLM.
