One thing im wondering with the LLM age we seem to be entering: is there value in picking up a language like this if theres not going to be a corpus of training data for an LLM to learn from? Id like to invest the time to learn Gleam, but I treat a language as a tool, or a means to an end. I feel like more and more I'm reaching for the tool to get the job done most easily, which are languages that LLMs seem to gel with.

claude is really good at elixir. IME, It's really really good with a few "unofficial" tweaks to the language/frameworks, but this could be my bias. the LLM cutoff was a fear of mine, but i think it's actually the opposite. we know that as few as 250 documents can "poison" an LLM, i suspect that (for now) a small language with very higg quality examples can "poison" LLMs for the better.
