I can see Rust (and to some degree, Go) as the modern outputs from AI. My point about Python being Pinyin is that both of these languages have a relatively steep learning curve for someone without programming experience, and that it might be worth learning Python before doing agentic coding in Rust, much as children in China learn Latin characters before they learn characters.

The problem with Rust is that, AI aside, the learning curve is steep. Even senior engineers need to wrap their head around Rust for several weeks. You can pick up Go or Java in an afternoon. It’s fast, it mostly makes sense. Unless you do very specific low level things I don’t particularly see Rust becoming the de facto norm for the vast amount of enterprise code
