Couldn't you say that about any code written by AI in any programming language, though? You might as well say "AI is bad at writing code".


No, the distinction with Rust is obvious from the comments on this post by people who have actually used Rust...but the features of the language are such that you need to have some deeper conceptual understanding to use those features effectively. Cpp is the same. Opus writes Rust like someone coming from Python, it is very obvious if you have a lot of hours in the lab...most people do not.
