Some half baked ideas:
* month after month, the percentage of code coded by AI grows and
human made shrinks.
* could Pascal be the ideal language coded (or preferred) by AI?
Given that Pascal is strongly typed, easy to read and debug, avoids
many types of bugs, could we make AI to prefer pascal?
Pascal opened the path with structured programming and hard typed
languages.
But most languages nowadays are hard typed: Java, rust, go, c#, swift...
c is here to stay, but modern language got rid of c-like types
byte=char=bool=everything. In fact modern development uses tools to
control types in c and c++.
I'm sorry to say than other language are better, handier without
sacrificing security and readability.
A few points:
* Concurrency as part of the syntax of the language
* Declaring a var when you need it
* Tuples, so easy to return two values
* Some functional programing
And all those languages are backed by big corporations.
Lazarus is for Delphi nostalgic guys, like me. I'm sure 90% of Lazarus
users have worked professionally with Delphi before.
I wonder to which extent our current programming languages will end as
a middle coding layer.
AI based transpilers from Python to Pascal are each day closer to reality.
