It's so strange how much effort goes into producing a language that people don't even intend to write.

To me it’s about determinism and feedback. Agents will make mistakes but if they get clear feedback from the tools they use, they will produce a good result.

There are a shrinking number of reasons to geenfield projects with non-strict or unsafe languages now.

What's strange is only seeing value in manually writing code when clearly AI is very useful to produce quality code here.

you can ask ai to write code in existing languages with large training sets, and it'll do better because of the large volume of training data.

if you're all-in on ai, you want to prioritize familiarity for agents.

		The objective of this project isn't to make a language fit for AI to write but to make a "probably safe system language" regardless of who's doing the coding.

		That would imply the AI should write every program in Python from now until the end of time; but just because the AI is most familiar with Python doesn’t mean we have to throw everything we know about system design and using the right tools for the job out of the window.
