You think the input format will be easier for AI? I don't know. We have evolved knowledge of the input format for children. Meanwhile the majority of our knowledge is inexplicit, and we are bad at turning that into vague English, let alone into something as precise as code.

Back to children, we're so good at teaching them that we manage to teach them many inexplicit ideas without ever having much understanding of those ideas.
