Sheer cost of "hundreds of billions"?
Within another couple years, automated systems that are descendants of today's rapidly-advancing coding-assistant LLMs will be able to do amazing things.
For example, it's plausible they'd be able to to create proven-memory-safe rewrites of older software, with verified drop-in compatibility for all enumerable use-cases, practically for free.
Well, unless it's a parasitic government contractor doing the work.

Yeah I'll believe it when I see it. If humans struggle to figure out what these systems are supposed to do, no AI is going to figure it out. Hundreds of billions of dollars is a lowball estimate on what it would take to rewrite it all in Rust.
