Honestly it is a moot point. The benefit of languages like Python compare to Rust still hold. Algorithmic complexity rules the roost. For the hot path, write a C extension that is rigorously tested. Python you can iterate much faster same as any scripting language.

The AI can iterate faster in Python too, guaranteed, because you don’t have any compile time.

Also, this is how AIs already get stuff done: they write SCRIPTS to perform tasks in a sandbox with tool calls. This is the future, dynamic languages, not using static languages.
