    Why does this misleading article from more than a year ago get posted repeatedly?

    This submission doesn't mention the publish time either, and it uses the link that hides a bunch of replies that debunk the article.

    Might it see a popularity burst though, due to Rust's inherent advantage in AI augmented development? Being more deterministic makes it easier for LLM's to produce working code in it.

      There is not such an advancement, Rust is made for dealing with human's mistakes. Chatbots can stop having such a mistakes and generate more terse formal specs instead.

        Aren’t they trained on human code?

            The question by @wookmaster isn't just valid, if we're to follow your argument, chatbots may as well skip C and write directly in assembly or machine code for maximum efficiency! You seem to put too much faith in chatbots that you forget that correcting AI mistakes in code is a major job now. Even the best coders use AI to only fill in obvious code, not to think on their behalf.

                That long list of out-of-context jargon you threw over there is more valid in assembly than in C. All you're doing is to ignore the points that the others make and launch red-herring and ad-hominem attacks on them instead. I don't know what your issue is, but your attitude and insults only expose yourself. So keep them to yourself.

                  Give me please a short list of examples confirming this.

            Saying chatbots trained on human code won’t have human errors feels off is all

              There is no point in making any logical argument here. You aren't responding good faith responses.
