Why does this misleading article from more than a year ago get posted repeatedly?

This submission doesn't mention the publish time either, and it uses the link that hides a bunch of replies that debunk the article.

Might it see a popularity burst though, due to Rust's inherent advantage in AI augmented development? Being more deterministic makes it easier for LLM's to produce working code in it.

There is not such an advancement, Rust is made for dealing with human's mistakes. Chatbots can stop having such a mistakes and generate more terse formal specs instead.

Aren’t they trained on human code?
