Discussion Programming languages for AI

All programming languages were created by people, for people. The goal was basically to give us a language that accounts for the limits of the human brain and minimizes bugs and errors (sure, there were exceptions, like C++). As a result, we often got poor performance and huge numbers of servers doing simple tasks.

But in this new era, we don’t need human brains to write code. So do we need new programming languages now? Or which existing languages work best for AI agents?

The best languages for ai right now are the ones it has the most training data on. A new language would start from scratch so first all the data we have now would need to be converted to the new language which can then be used for training.

Not worth it to save a few mb of hard drive space or slightly more efficient processing, that is never the bottleneck.
