Maybe something like Hylo? But personally I don't see anything displacing rust for the next few years, as I think there's enough rust in the training data for it to be the best "serious" language for agentic systems-level development.
It's really the only systems language in its exact niche.
That's the power of a strong test suite. LLMs excel when you have verifiable rewards. I imagine we'll get a lot more rewritten in rust projects in the future. Rust is also an ideal target for such rewrites as it offers a lot of verification (via its type system) and is low overhead with zero-gc. There's less and less reason to use GC'd languages in the agentic coding era.
I think Rust is a locally optimal target for LLM coding, we might see a better language in the future, but I think Rust will dominate for quite some time.
Seems like the way to go for any smaller models is to only use the low reasoning levels, and for anything where you'd want it to reason harder, to just use a larger model.
In effect, high reasoning only makes sense when you're using the frontier model and need extra performance (higher levels of reasoning are never pareto optimal unless you're at the largest model size).
I personally skip breakfast and just eat lunch and dinner.
I'm not very active, and I've found that doing that as well as not eating snacks, sugar, or having calories in drinks makes it pretty easy to roughly be calorically neutral day to day.

I don't think this will be true in the same time span anymore. Each miniaturization is costing more and more money.
Perhaps they'll come up with exotic fundamental improvements, but I don't think the rate of improvement of compute/watt will match the previous decades.
> it's a cat and mouse game that favors the defenders IMO
How so? I'm actually against most of the "safety-tuning" that anthropic does, but this seems fundamentally untrue, a close analogue being video game cheat development. I think in general the cheat developer has an advantage and the cheats generally proliferate for quite a while before being patched.
> We have also added safeguards related to frontier LLM development. As discussed in
Section 6.1 of our February 2026 Risk Report, we are concerned about the risks of
accelerating the overall pace of AI development, though we remain uncertain about the
severity of these risks. In particular, our concern is with—as we wrote then—“accelerating
other AI developers in building powerful AI systems that pose similar risks to the ones ours
pose - without necessarily having commensurate safeguards.”
In light of the ability of recent models to accelerate their own development, we’ve
implemented new interventions that limit Claude’s effectiveness for requests targeting
frontier LLM development (for example, on building pretraining pipelines, distributed
training infrastructure, or ML accelerator design). Using Claude to develop competing
models already violates our Terms of Service, but enforcing this restriction through our
safeguards avoids accelerating the actors most willing to violate these terms.
Unlike our interventions for cybersecurity, biology and chemistry, and distillation attempts,
these safeguards will not be visible to the user. Fable 5 will not fall back to a different
model. Instead, the safeguards will limit effectiveness through methods such as prompt
modification, steering vectors, or parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT). These
interventions will not affect the vast majority of coding work. We estimate they will impact
~0.03% of traffic, concentrated in fewer than 0.1% of organizations. When these
interventions are active, we expect them to have minimal behavioral impact on the model
except to limit its effectiveness in developing frontier LLMs. Claude will still respond
helpfully to user requests. We’ll continue to improve the precision of our detection
methods following the launch of this model.
This seems pretty bullshit, you're paying through the nose for tokens and if you are doing anything ML-adjacent, you might silently get worse output without knowing it.
This would have a massive chilling effect on the private sector as a whole. IMO it would completely destroy investment in America. American companies and markets get extraordinary investor interest due to strong property rights. Once those rights are gone there will be massive capital flight and greatly reduced investment.
Imo this proposal is even worse than a billionaire wealth tax (which has all sorts of implementation issues).
That's not true at all, sure CRUD might not have been that difficult, but absolutely there is extremely complicated software out there that is really difficult to write in a performant and correct manner.
