DSLs Enable Reliable Use of LLMs

LLMs generate code incredibly fast, but to ensure they generate exactly what is intended, they need clear boundaries. Abstractions and Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs) provide a strong harness that guides LLMs right from the start. Unmesh Joshi describes how the example of Tickloom - a domain model and DSL for illustrating distributed system behavior - shows how we can use an LLM as a partner to iteratively build a DSL and as a natural language interface to use it. Such a DSL can act as the key source of truth for software systems in the world of LLMs.
