> On the other hand, there's no reason to believe that, in this hypothesized future, LLMs would stick to the languages that exist today. With the exception of machine code, all programming languages exist to make programming easier for humans. If no humans look at code, it's conceivable that new languages will emerge; languages optimized for LLMs to consume, generate, and manipulate.
Yup, been thinking this for a while now.
Also, separately, that while we are in the "centaur" domain, it's important to focus on tools to make it easier to review code and code changes.

I believe technical debt to be inevitable. At least for the foreseeable future, as the foreseeable future has an ongoing drift from what is made to solve a need in one moment and the changing needs that come later.
