Lisp, the second major programming language in history, was specifically designed for AI programming.

Today's AI is really heuristics or ML and not "intelligence." All programming languages that already exist can be used to write ML programs and all human languages can be used as prompts (with a matching corpus).

A programming language designed specifically to be generated using prompts would be useless because the AI would have no data to actually generate the code from prompts. You have to realize that so-called AI is more of a lossy search engine than an actual intelligent being.

I'd like to see two large language models go head to head in philosophical conversation one playing China's Liu Hsieh and player two the U.S.'s Marvin Minsky beginning on the topic Ai.
