Will AI Coding Kill Programming Languages?

from My Weird Prompts

We've passed the inflection point where machines write code as well as humans — probably better. So why do we still have hundreds of programming languages? This episode explores the uncomfortable question: when AI becomes the primary code writer, does language plurality become a relic? We trace languages from COBOL's business-English origins to Python's ecosystem moat, then examine what Anders Hejlsberg's "big regurgitator" critique means for the future. Will we converge on one language, or will languages simply become invisible infrastructure? Episode #451634 — open it directly at myweirdprompts.com/451634
