These are exactly the reasons why ruby will not be the future of programming. Do you think AIs are going to write code in dynamic languages? They would have to search the entire space of possible programs that includes infinite syntactically incorrect programs whereas if they used a statically typed language they could be hooked into the language server and each token that is generated will only come from the space of syntactically correct programs.

They aren’t operating on a search space, and they aren’t following or explicitly constrained by any defined rules of grammar (programming or English or otherwise). It’s “just” probabilistic next token generation, it doesn’t care if your language is typed or not.
