The key idea is: Move as much of the correctness problem as possible from “the LLM has to remember to do it right” into “the language makes wrong programs difficult… Read more: ChatGPT: Language Features that Help LLMs

    Language features that make one-shot correctness more likely mostly do one of two things: they shrink the space of valid programs so fewer wrong ones are expressible, or they surface errors early enough that the model’s mistakes are caught by the compiler rather than at runtime. Here are the ones that matter most. Static, expressive… Read more: Claude: Language features that help LLMs
