<story><title>What&apos;s Going on with Language Rankings?</title><url>https://redmonk.com/rstephens/2023/12/14/language-rankings-update/</url></story><parent_chain></parent_chain><comment><author>cle</author><text>&amp;gt; The advent and rise of AI-based code assistants are already impacting the data that populates RedMonk’s language rankings.&lt;p&gt;Not only that, they are impacting the actual languages people use. Why use some new &amp;#x2F; esoteric language that an LLM doesn&amp;#x27;t know much about, when you can get the same job done much faster using a language that the LLM knows well and can debug?&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s going to get increasingly difficult to bootstrap new languages unless they are available in LLMs.</text></comment>
