The implication being that you're writing in a language so unsafe that you need to pay for AI data centers to periodically double-check it for you. That isn't the argument in favor of C that you think it is.
It is not. Tell me one good reason to deal with the horrible language called rust now that we have mechanisms capable of doing the exact same stuff in a vastly less obnoxious manner....(I am talking about running LLMs over your C code once in a while).
I don't like rust because
1. Verbose Syntax made worse by having to include type system info...
2. Dumb Borrow checker
3. Automagic stuff...

I hope this is satire.

Thanks for your opinion, we’ll give it all the attention that it deserves.

A C user calling Rust a bad language is a fine example of the pot calling the kettle black.
I've never seen a proof that LLMs can fix memory safety in C or C++ like Rust does. I'll believe it when I'll see it.
And I prefer to work with Rust than both anyway. Such advancement (if it will happen) will only make other languages like Zig feasible for me.
or to save tokens you can have an LLM write a borrow checker to do this for you. Oh wait you're just rebuilding rust...
The point of writing in C is that I don't have to deal with borrow checker shit when it is too dumb to figure out what I want to do is actually safe.
My money is on the opposite.
