I'm a programmer, and I've heard many programmers advocate for using "AI". I surround myself with those that reject it (primarily for ethical reasons), but the ones at my last job seemed to like it.

Anyway, the whole industry has actually been built on vibes for at least a generation. C is bad. JS is worse. We have better languages that had better tooling and better semantics since before either of those were invented, but they were ignored in order to build an edifice to Capital on sand. Since then, the actual computer scientists (that study that branch of mathematics) have made much better languages and done studies to provide evidence they are easier to learn and produce a lower fault rate. That has been consistently ignored.

Adopting "AI" is just another step before the whole industry collapses, and we restart on better foundations and salvage what is absolutely necessary.

I don't know what the next foundation actually is, or how stable it can even be when it's built on this von Neumann trash instead of a proper Harvard Architecture. /s (I hope the foundation is related to GRTT or QTT.)

What are some examples of those better languages that have been created by scientists? I might look into it learning one if they are that superior.
