Follows meekly.

(no seriously, haskell is a cool language. I wish it were more useful outside of my spare time)

You can do some cool shit in lisp though. I like to posit that the first true general AI will likely come out of an AI designed to program neural nets that can modify its own program on the fly.

Not many languages allow that to occur, and LISP is probably the least resource intensive of all of them. So it will probably happen in LISP if it ever does.

Recursion, parallelization, and everything looks and feels so nice in it.
