> easy to read/understand for humans

I think many languages are actually already optimized for this. Where "reading" means reasoning about what the program does and not just reading text.

That is what makes them also optimal for LLMs as is. It would be more efficient to have something that is direct machine code, but LLMs are Large <Language> Models right?

Do we even need such a language, beyond just English / other human languages?

IMO we’ll see LLM interpreters / compilers where the spec is the code, and whatever the LLM does in the background is opaque to the “programmer”.
