Given we are getting to the point where coding agents write most of the code, what motivates you to create a new programming language? Follow up: do you build these languages keeping humans in mind, or are these meant to be used by AI agents?

I've been making languages all my life, and I made this one because I had a really strong design in mind that I think should exist.
Whether it would make sense in this AI world was not a consideration.
The syntax and semantics were mostly designed for humans. That said, using it optimally asks a lot of the human, and in turns out the better LLMs don't break a sweat using it, so maybe it accidentally hits the spot. Goose with LLM can give you lots of speed without the effort.
In some weird way it is a great time to make new languages, because the downside of convincing humans to learn it is gone. Anyone that has a project that needs to be fast can decide to use Goose for it at very little cost.
Thanks for your response. I have been wanting to dip my toe in the space of language building for a while, but keep getting discouraged by the advances of coding agents. Love your reason for building this!
