Is that so? I feel like I’m seeing more Python and TypeScript than ever, especially when it comes to AI tooling, which is disappointing. I can’t fathom why anybody would want to continue working with dynamically typed languages when they can now get types for free. | ||

I suspect a lot of the Python and TypeScript code is getting prompted by folks who don't know any difference between dynamically typed and statically typed. | ||

In the early days of LLM coding, it seemed to be much better at Python for whatever reason. I was never a big Python guy, but I got better results so I ran with it. That definitely doesn't seem to be the case anymore. Last week I asked Codex to mash up Super Mario Bros and Contra ROMs and it just did everything in straight assembly and absolutely crushed it. It couldn't do that 2 years ago. Python is just momentum and I think it's going to die down now that the models are much better. | ||
