DevopsQuestions··on Anti Python AI Club: AI for Python H8ers
I agree with your attitudes towards Python completely -- I'm a competent coder with a decade of experience, but find Python inscrutible for programs longer than 100 lines.

I would ask you to consider first: are there other efforts that you can join before deciding to strike out on your own? You are far from the first person to dislike Python, and there is very interesting work happening in the Elixir community around creating a viable alternative to Python for AI and Machine Learning. They are very capable folks, and I think spending some time looking at their work, what they're working on and why will do you well. There are also efforts in the Swift and Julia communities, but I'm personally less excited about those.
