Yeah, it's a big extrapolation from current abilities. But when GPT-1 and GPT-2 came out, I never thought we'd get to where we were now at all let alone so quickly.

Near term, yes I think there’s pressure for that to happen. Longer term, I think it’s plausible for models to become fluent in new languages quickly. Longer term, maybe there is an explosion of languages? Imagining per-app languages created by models (the dream of lisp macro users!)

95% of the code “I” write is written by AI, conservatively, and the models keep getting better, quite quickly.
