Peyton-Jones describes his interest in lazy functional programming languages, and chats about their increasing relevant in a world with rapdily increasing multi-core CPUs and clusters: "I think Haskell is increasingly well placed for this multi-core stuff, as I think people are increasingly going to look to languages like Haskell and say 'oh, that's where we can get some good ideas at least', whether or not it's the actual language or concrete syntax that they adopt.""
