Listen "AI-First Languages: TypeScript, Bash, and the New Rules of Coding"

Episode Synopsis

AI is remaking how we choose what to build with, not just how we code. Drawing on GitHub Next’s Octoverse data, we trace a shift from traditional runtime and ecosystem tradeoffs to AI-driven decision making: TypeScript surges 66% YoY for safer, faster AI‑generated code; Bash explodes 206% as AI handles scripting drudgery; and WebAssembly threatens to remove language‑to‑runtime constraints. The ultimate competition becomes the tooling and debugging ergonomics that let humans and machines collaborate most effectively.
