Ask HN: If AI-generated code works 100%, do languages still need to be upgraded?

3•okzgn•1h ago
Supposing that the code generated by AI always works and follows good programming practices, will it still be really necessary to create new or better web technologies and programming languages? It looks like a point to stop learning and creating new technologies...

Insane people will still create new tech stacks for fun just like they always have.

Do you mean literally 'insane' people? Because I think 'sane' people would refuse to do that.

There will always be industries that require auditable code, so some things will need to be human-readable until we trust AI to audit code that's written by AI. I imagine that's a long way off, simply because no one will trust people not to use "AI wrote it! I had no idea!" as a way to get dodgy code past an audit.

I think it's likely that we'll invent new languages for AI to use because there's probably things that AI could take advantage of that humans wouldn't need or maybe even understand. To start with that's likely to be something around token efficiency but there's probably more interesting things to invent than that. Who knows. It's early days.

Will we ever truly give up human-written code though? That's unlikely. Writing code is fun, so people will always do it. Kind of like people building wooden furniture or build their own boat. Machines do it better, but that's not always the goal.

Useful answer. I'm obsessed with the idea that coding might not be a perpetual technology. But as time shows, AI is moving faster than that idea, and Murphy's Law suggests that 'unlikely' can easily become reality.
