Developer builds a programming language LLMs can't use

Original: I built a programming language that LLMs can't use

A software developer has created a programming language deliberately designed to be unusable by large language models, describing it as a kind of 'killswitch' for AI coding assistants. The project has drawn attention on Hacker News, where it ranks among the most discussed stories, sparking debate about whether humans can keep skills and tooling that AI systems cannot easily replicate or exploit.

Why now: Growing concern about AI coding assistants replacing or reshaping programming skills has made an intentionally AI-proof language a striking point of discussion.
