Our algorithmic infrastructure creates a scalable graph over source code at scale. Our AI processing infrastructure then enables us to apply AI agents, guided by algorithms, to make code modifications at scale. The core of this infrastructure is already operating at scale

He put some scale in his scale.

AI agents, guided by algorithms

Computers are guided by algorithms, amazing.

Even if you use AI, bullshit is still bullshit. That doesn't change.

If a software engineer can suprivise 1 million lines of code being written a month, then there is no job for software engineers anymore. A single person can't verify that much code in a month, so writing code would no longer be an important skill.

The difficulty here isn't the Rust (since literally anything can be rewritten in Rust with more or less difficulty); the difficulty here is the Ai.

I live in Aus and haven’t seen it. Restaurants will usually have a tip option on the eftpos machine but it is very optional and if it was mandatory, they would loose repeat business.
And there is nowhere else I’ve seen tipping.

Minimum casual wage is now almost $32/hr ($21USD)
Since COVID though cost of living has skyrocketed, so I do feel for the restaurants.

The problem is that without allowing some "unsafe" operations in Rust or any other language it is impossible to do any I/O

I don't think that's true, unless you insist on immutability. In particular, it IS possible to do safe IO, most languages can handle it. For Rust, it's just a matter of defining the proper rules that make IO safe, and then enforcing them.
