Let AI speak in its mother tongue (opens in new tab)

Hi HN,

I asked GPT-5 to count the characters in this essay [1]. Here's what happened:

- JavaScript: correct in 1ms

- GPT-5 with Python tool: correct in 26 seconds

- GPT-5 pure reasoning: wrong after 3.2 minutes

So why can't we let AI reason in Python or JavaScript instead of English? In this essay, I explore this question through graph transformers that preserve code structure rather than flattening it into token sequences. Thoughts?
