Zig creator's article seems to have changed? I don't remember the bottom bit being there when I read it a few days ago.

> Ray’s story: Faced with a legitimate challenge of memory bugs, there were several viable options. Management eagerly approved the Rust rewrite option because it was a great marketing opportunity to showcase their new Fable model, Anthropic already uses Rust, and Zig is openly against using Anthropic’s products.

Kinda makes sense. They also tried to make a C compiler earlier in the year. Idk what happened to that.

I guess it's an experiment without much downside for Anthropic, if it works use it to make a point about AI assisted coding - if it doesn't bun users will learn a costly lesson but who cares, it will just be another case study to make their product better.

That said, I think it'd be great to see this actually work out.
