Rust only prevents/discourages some classes of programmer mistakes.
But presumably your you want to reduce all of the mistakes.
Rust won't prevent/discourage a lot of the other classes of mistake that a bad programmer is creating.
- setr 1y agoSure but generally speaking, the safer the language/model/api, the more likely you can get away with AI generated code. Rust having more powerful modeling tools than the usual language sales it more viable to use crappier programmers, not less. Obviously if your goal is perfection, then only hire programmers capable of writing perfection. If you’re making the trade-off of cheaper/junior resources and putting more effort into testing/api design/type design/code review to help defend against the inevitable errors, then your genai code fits neatly into the same equation
