True, in fact AI made programming languages less important these 
days, since you can port a code in minutes between languages. The 
most used or trained ones will be more reliable with this 
translation.

Write code in this language x.

Now port it in that language y.

Now rewrite using this feature z.

The old programming language features war is over. What matters 
is what language is easier and less prone to errors for AI to 
write code.

Even C can come back in style with all the sourced trained over 
several years.
