> We've seen huge advances in human language modeling and translation due to the success of deep learning.
I wonder if we’ll eventually see a system where instead of writing code you describe in natural language what you want the program to do and then ML is applied in order to generate the code for that.
I mean, a lot of people have been interested in the past in making human programming languages, and had varying degrees of success.
Personally I love writing code but, it could be, couldn’t it?
Write some unit tests, a human description of what it does and based on the source code and description of existing software the system would basically “debug the program into existence” for you.
That’d be kind of freaky, kind of cool and a little bit scary.
