Rust can win against CPP if AI can understand its docs better than CPP's :D

Why when the end goal is to get machine code directly, or agents that act on their own?

Generating current programming languages is only a transition step, just like Assembly programmers were suspicious of the first optimizing compilers and expected multiple steps, having the compilers generating Assembly they could inspect, and only then run the Assembler on that.

We need to take the Alan Kay point of view, not what AI tools can do today, rather what they might look a few decades down the line.
