> Rust is the best general-purpose language for the new world of AI-driven development.
Funny, the Python guys say Python is the best general-purpose language for AI and the Go guys say Go is the best general-purpose language for AI etc etc

  Never met a person who said python is the best except the python-cult. Legacy language that should be gone, it’s a scripting language that got known by data scientists as a replacement of R because they are not developers, they wanted something hacky and dirty to do things quickly, it was never meant for serious programming, something you can see in the dependency hell, indentation, syntax, performance, etc, and then you see people are trying to use it in UI or even robotics, what are you doing?! Maybe before llm it was an easy hacky way, now it should die for good.
