Would love to see a directed Graph generated from a LLM prompt. So, instead of a NoFlo source text, a NoFlo-style graph.

Coincidentally, I'm writing a flow based patchbay for scalars, called "MuFlo"[1]. Kinda low level. I wonder how MuFlo and NoFlo might coexist.

I was able to get Bing to produce those, but only pretty simplistic ones. And as mentioned, the results were better in the fbp language than in JSON (most JSON wasn't even fully valid).

I wonder if it makes sense to produce some sort of neo-COBAL that produces a bridge between flow and declarative syntax that better aligns with expressing intent that maps from human input. That is harder to do with lower-level languages, but if we are optimizing for gluing together components it seems like it is very common for systems to build their own "DSLs" to solve a task. Is there a more generalizable DSL (which would no longer be domain-specific, I suppose) but still maintains the properties of such a system without generalizing to any kind of programming task?
