that’s not really true anymore is it though? in my limited experience now that nearly all AI is statistical, it’s mostly implemented in python, R, matlab, or the low level languages that implement their stats libraries like C and fortran
Sure, but as far as I’m aware, no other large group of LISP users exists. My contention isn’t that most AI researchers use LISP now, but that most LISP programmers are (were?) AI researchers.
I’ve been trying to learn about early AI work, and I’m finding that to get any practical details you’re almost guaranteed to have to wade through LISP code, although at least it’s usually pretty well commented.
LISP: You are an AI researcher and a nerd.

Don’t forget Julia!
