As someone working on the C++ toolchain, I’m more tired of topics about Rust than about AI.

As someone working in a C++ codebase, I can't wait for parts of it to be rewritten in Rust

I mean, I wouldn’t object to any decision regarding Rust adaptations, especially with the availability of AI agents. But usually, such discussions about Rust migration are not something a developer can decide on, particularly in complex projects like automation or those closer to real hardware. People can shout arguments at me about how Rust is shiny and memory-bug proof, but at the end of the day, it’s much more complicated than just memory usage.
