I've been drafting a blog post on this as well. My take is that programming langauges largely evolve around "human" ergonomics and solve for "humans writing the code", but that can result in code that is too abstract and non-performant. I think where LLMs will succeed (more) is in writing _very dumb verbose code_ that can be easily optimized by the compiler. What humans look at and what an AI looks at right now are similar only by circumstance, and what I sort of expect is that you start seeing something more like a "structure editor" that expresses underlying "dumb" code in a more abstract way such that humans can refactor it effectively, but what the human sees/edits isn't literally what the code "is". IDK it's not written yet but when it is it will be here:
