With the rise of LLM-coding do these specialized/niche languages lose their edge? (i.e: prototyping speed, job security, etc)

In this case it is a little beyond specialized and niche. It is right to left too.

No LLM can write KDB yet

As most KDB code is proprietary, one wonders if there's even enough available code to train/steal from.

KDB code is as proprietary as java, python, C++ code found at other financial institutions. What's proprietary is the Q language. not the code you write with it

I think what they mean is that there is less publicly available kdb code for llms to be trained on

No "public" LLM can write KDB yet.
