Talk:Fifth-generation programming language

message: Are we sure of this entry? I've never heard of fifth generation languages being defined as constraint solving languages.
You right: 5GL will change the world, so we will cannot miss that. ;-) Vlisivka (talk) 11:26, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

text: Why aren't any of these references in the article? From searching google, it seems like this is an infrequently used term that largely died in the 80s. Mbelisle 05:43, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

text: Firstly, cite your sources for it being influential.  How does a term that gained almost no usage count as influential?  What did it influence? Secondly, even if it had some limited value in the 80s, it doesn't now. The page should reflect that, not pretend the term currently has validity.
Ref. 4 no longer links to the original source.

message: Prolog is not 5GL.  Prolog can be written in Lisp and Lisp can be written in Prolog, they are both 4GL.  Prolog interpreters are commonly written in a 3GL and are therefore 4GL. Prolog is similar to SQL which is a 4GL. Anything that parses a language into 4GL code is 5GL.  This new 'graphical' definition is fine if the icons generate 4GL code, but the original goal of 5GL was natural language parsing, i.e. artificial intelligence that talks in English. It is unknown whether natural language is a 5GL.
An approach to 5GL is parsing sentences into SQL.
INPUT : "What is the capital of Italy?"
 
SQL: "select city from capitals where country = "Italy"" 
RESULT: 
[City]
"Rome" 
OUTPUT: "City is Rome"

message: This is my first contribution so I decided not to edit the page myself... Anyhow, it's about the weasel words "A number[who?] of software vendors currently claim that their software meets the visual "programming" requirements of the 5GL concept." Looks like one of them is WorkXpress claiming that their product (of the same name) is "the first complete 5th generation programming language tool"

replies: text: Agreed, LLMs could very well be. I don't think we are there yet, issues remain around reliability and reproducability. In any case, until scholars and so on report such things in peer reviewed papers and the like that we can cite, this would just be an opinion/ original research, so we can't add it to the article. If there are news articles where chatgpt is discussed as a 5GL candidate, that could be added, though. 139.61.117.252 (talk) 14:09, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
