It does not take some other language and compile it down to LaTeX. LaTeX itself is the source, and it goes through unchanged. What ExactTeX adds is a layer of checks and diagnostics based on the names and annotations you introduce. If anything, AI-assisted writing makes that layer even more valuable. Agents can generate LaTeX quickly, but they also make mistakes quickly, and an error like "Missing } inserted" is no more helpful to an agent than it is to a human.
