Now that doesn't mean Linux stable kernel maintainer Greg Kroah-Hartman thinks Rust is magic.

    A tone of AI and crypto projects are written in Rust. So I highly doubt that.

      The topic of the talk was how Rust eliminates classes of errors (and security issues) that are being very frequently found and reported. An example given: you can’t forget to lock/unlock when using the locking types in Rust.

      That Rust can be (and has been) used in AI and crypto projects isn’t relevant to this argument.

        I’m aware of Rust’s benefits. I’ve heard it a thousand a times.

      They are also written in C++. In fact, even the most used Python ones are written in C++ and C.
