This actually isn't a bad idea, GPT takes commonly talked about things and distils them into a response to you, so the language you get when you ask it to make a programming language is probably a mix of well liked programming features that many people added to a language they themselves wanted. When you design a language on your own you will be too biased towards your own cases, this is a way to get around that and source the internet for what they think.
- brucethemoose2 4y agoNah, GPT has its own biases too. Its preference for Pythonic/JS syntax is a simple but good example, as those are likely the most popular languages in its dataset.
- Jensson 4y agoYou could probably ask it for a more specific programming language to get around that, like say you want a programming language with static typing and garbage collection. But yeah, if it just prints javascript and python styles then it isn't very helpful, but it is pretty good at source ideas in most cases.
