I have been using AI to write Clojure code this past half year. The frontline LLM has no problem with writing idiomatic Clojure code. Both Codex and Claude Code fix their missing closing parentheses quickly. So I won't say "Writing Lisp is AI resistant". In fact, Clojure is a great fit with AI coding agent: it is token efficient, and the existing Clojure code used for training are mostly high quality code, as Clojure tends to attract experienced coders.

Ha, and I’ve been using Datalevin for my vibe-coded apps! Thank you so much for such a wonderful piece of software.

  I am glad you enjoyed it. I am happy to report that the next release will have many new features: Raft consensus based high availability (comes with an extensive Jepsen test suite); built-in MCP server; built-in llama.cpp for in DB embedding; JSON API; language bindings for Java, Python and Javascript.

  Hey, thanks for mentioning Datalevin (https://github.com/datalevin/datalevin https://github.com/datalevin/datalevin) - I hadn’t seen that before.

But we don't hear of famous AI written in lisp. It's like below the notice-radar.

  Lisp was invented for AI development, just the symbolic GOFAI kind.
