Very interesting talk and topic. It's funny he describes it as a programming language. To me it feels like "a text editing language". Like Vim but spoken.

I think it will be excellent for people that can't use a keyboard to program. Really cool to see more of this accessibility in programming.

Ok awesome thanks I kept waiting for someone to call me on this one and I was starting to worry that no one would :). I don't believe it's Turing complete yet, so I think you may be right to call me on it. Kind of depends how you define "programming language", I guess. For what it's worth, I talk a bit about Cursorless from the perspective of programming language paradigms starting at 31:30 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcUJnmBqHTY&t=1890s)
