Writing a compiler or a detailed specification is the “easy” part - it’s just raw slog. The hard part of making a programming language is coming up with novel

  > hard part of making a programming language is coming up with novel ideas that fit together into coherent whole I don't think anybody's claiming that this chatbot actually came up with novel ideas which fit together into a coherent whole. Are they? And we don't know if the novel ideas --if any-- fit together into a coherent whole until we have a compiler that allows us to test in practice how well those ideas fit together. If creating the compiler for such a new language with new ideas was the easy part I think somebody would have done that already. The AI would have done that if it was the easy part. Just ask it to do it. I say proof is in the pudding.
