Programming languages are only a way to describe a problem. Even with AI if you want it to build software for you, you have to describe your problem and to describe problems human languages are not that efficient, soooo... AI would require kinda a programming language, just an high level one. Maybe you can avoid writing logics, but as a software engineer, writing logics is the easiest and less time demanding task in serious software development.

Computers are already able to write software faster than humans, this is called compilation. Languages are only a way to describe a problem and the computer automatically builds an extremely efficient software to solve it. No language models involved, so no randomicity, no biases and no errors caused by the inability to follow elementary syllogisms. Language models are not intelligent and they will never be. Yes, true AI imho is possible, but it won't be a statistical model trying to predict words in a phrase, this is ridiculous and just companies marketing which you continue to take the bait.

You cannot represent everything using english text, and text in known languages can be extremely compressed just because we know details about its structure. (And anyway, it cannot be compressed that extremely, information theory explains this very well, computational power isn't the only limit here).

If you cannot represent everything using valid english text, you cannot compress at high rates without losing information. A big part of digital data is actually noise, and noise cannot be compressed by definition.

Have those companies' movies and TV shows ever been good?

Probably because it received upvotes recently?

Flakes are extremely simple (my whole system is a flake: https://github.com/cmargiotta/dotfiles ), but they are basically not documented.

The grammar is really really bad, I prefere a lot the Guix one too! I am using NixOS only because the last time I tried Guix I didn't find a lot of packages for their extremist GNU policy (I agree, but I need some packages), is it still like that?

NixOS, I have a fetish for configuration files
