I think it's the other way around. Bun is being ported from Zig to Rust for no significant benefit, but just for the sake of using AI. Bun doesn't gain any significant performance improvements. The codebase is now filled with unsafe blocks, which undermines many of Rust's safety guarantees. On top of that, it hasn't undergone enough real-world testing to ensure it works correctly.
