Why Rust?

[PedroVSD]

Hello, and first of all. Thanks for all that work.

But, i got a doubt. Why did you choose rust and noy golang? I'm making this question just for curiosity. Because i see a lot in some place, i see it is used golang with python, on data enginrring, data science and MLOps. Ok, i know that rust, is for low level and "is the new option" that replace C or C++. But, as i said, why not golang, knowing that it is also fast and secure?

Go is absolutely a good choice too, especially for backend and MLOps.

I picked Rust because more of today’s AI tooling is becoming systems software: harnesses, runtimes, sandboxes, CLIs, inference infrastructure, etc. Codex is a good example, OpenAI rewrote the CLI from TypeScript to Rust.

So it’s less “Rust is better than Go” and more that Rust is becoming increasingly relevant for the lower-level AI engineering stack.

Yes, you got a point. What i see is, rust is replacing C and C++ as i said before. And yes, you said new tools involving AI are being written in rust, like Polars. Thank you for the conversation.
