What a weird take. At first I though you were going to predict a language with an even more featureful and strict type system.

We don't need the "boreness" and human usability of Go anymore. Fast compile times are still nice though.

Lisp syntax doesn't have much value in the age of AI I think. Lisp seems optimized to make it easy to parse, and also easy to hack on the interpreter. I don't think Lisp was ever meant to optimize human readability. The uniformity and minimalism of Lisp makes it easier to learn the syntax though. -- I don't know, maybe I underestimate the value and flexibility of Lisp syntax.

I think the most valuable features of programming languages now are human readability and type systems that give guarantees humans can rely on. Some of the most exciting code AI has written has been in Lean.
