New ideas for programming languages?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on innovative ideas for programming languages, particularly the integration of AI capabilities. One proposal suggests a language that incorporates AI learning functions, allowing users to execute a "learn" command that enables the computer to adapt based on provided data and fitness criteria. Concerns are raised about the complexity and potential dangers of advanced AI. Another idea involves creating a programming language that uses natural English commands instead of traditional syntax, making programming more accessible. Additionally, the concept of a language that utilizes cloud computing to enhance processing power is introduced. The conversation touches on the implications of such advancements, including the potential impact on the job market for computer engineers and the feasibility of AI systems becoming overly autonomous.

Hi! I've got a couple of new ideas for programming languages. I'm curious if anyone has thought about these.

1. I was thinking about AI and it just occurred to me -- is there a programming language which has AI built into it, much as like traditional programming languages have assembly built into them (and some of the more recent ones have STL and other clases and stuff)?

I'm sort of like imagining a situation where people could just execute the "learn" statement and the computer would learn how to do something. All you need is an array and some kind of fitness criteria. You can tweak the parameters as well (what kind of learning, for instance) if you're an advanced user.

The issues I see here are (a) would the learning get too complicated, and (b) would it be too dangerous to get AI too advanced (think Terminator).

2. Instead of stupid commands like printf() and so forth, have a primitive language which takes normal English words and parses them into computer commands ("write", "show" would be printf and stuff like that).

3. What about something which automatically has a @home option and goes over the Internet to speed up your processing?

Thanks in advance,

ACG

Yeah, in ideal case you could put your programming assignment text and compile it, the AI would take care of the details, if something is not totally clear it would ask you what to do... But if that were possible 99 % of computer engineers would be out of work! You don't wan't that to happen do you?

Btw: Such thing as terminator 3 could never happen in real life, if nothing else I imagine that an authorized operator needs to manually release some safety features before a nuclear weapon could be released - who would do that anyway?
 
take a look at system C commands...they exist for areason =]
 
Dear Peeps I have posted a few questions about programing on this sectio of the PF forum. I want to ask you veterans how you folks learn program in assembly and about computer architecture for the x86 family. In addition to finish learning C, I am also reading the book From bits to Gates to C and Beyond. In the book, it uses the mini LC3 assembly language. I also have books on assembly programming and computer architecture. The few famous ones i have are Computer Organization and...
I have a quick questions. I am going through a book on C programming on my own. Afterwards, I plan to go through something call data structures and algorithms on my own also in C. I also need to learn C++, Matlab and for personal interest Haskell. For the two topic of data structures and algorithms, I understand there are standard ones across all programming languages. After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
