Wouldn’t it be wonderful if, in the world of LLMs, Lisp became the new lingua franca, because we don’t have to convince humans that parens are scary, and because it enables exactly this kind of magic.
Hey, I'm the author. Yes, I worked in the University of Toronto's AI lab as a student many years ago, back when Lisp in AI was a thing. It definitely would be full circle!
I think OpenLDK allow you to use the Java world for sbcl when you don't want to use Clojure or ABCL. But using OpenLDK requires you to pay the interop cost and when speed of the java libraries is not a sharp constrain.

Full circle for Lisp as an AI language.

I love lisp. I have fond memories of reading/studying Land of Lisp many years ago. Glad to see stuff like this being created.

Your "light mode" button doesn't work.
That button makes the invisible scrollbar visible, though, which is great.
Incidentally, it looks like this idea also works with Jolt now. It's still in alpha stages, but works as a proof of concept. https://github.com/jlt-commons/jolt-openldk
