    My prediction for 2027 is that the world will be powered by two kinds of languages: low-level language(s) that implement the deterministic compute layer (i.e., tools) for agents, and high-level language(s) that implement agents and orchestration. Based on my observations, the strongest choice for each tier is Rust and TypeScript. You may also count Golang and Python.

    In 2027, other languages will become increasingly irrelevant.
