I'm probably going to be downvoted for this, but this makes this whole industry look like a bunch of snake oil salesmen and charlatans.

This actually made me laugh, I’m sorry

I'd be really interested in the opposite, just for the sake of experimentation since that's what these projects mostly are. They all seem to be rewrites for the sake of "performance", because the cost is now lower bc of AI. I'd be interested to see something like a port of Quake III in Python or Kubernetes in Perl, even Rails in Python would be goofy and really fun to see

I’m probably going to be downvoted for this but this thread doesn’t really reflect well on the promises of Generative AI and particularly the constantly reiterated assurance that we’re on the verge of a new industrial Revolution.

This looks like a solution in search of a problem already solved by SQLite

I’m not entirely sure this is the silver lining you seem to think it is

I would be interested in hearing a plausible scenario of how a large scale voting machines hack could potentially happen
