That should be pretty obvious. How about new programming languages for human beings to use? No reason not to make more of those. But this discussion is about a programming language designed for LLMs to use, not humans. The world doesn't need any more of those.
Design programming languages for humans first. If they're good enough to catch on, and people write lots of code in them, ask and answer lots of questions about them, write tutorial and have hacker news discussions about them, then they will naturally and eventually end up in the training data, and the models will know about them. Problem solved.
It's ridiculous and costly to design a language for LLMs but not humans to use, and then necessarily and repeatedly insert the entire language definition and examples into every single prompt, instead of building it into the model. It's a tragic waste of electricity and money, and has a huge carbon footprint. Why isn't this obvious?
