Summary
The article revisits Atwood's Law in the context of AI-assisted development, arguing that AI/LLMs will push core systems toward performance-oriented languages like Rust and Go for efficiency. It introduces the concept of AI arbitrage and the brain-vs-muscle dynamic, suggesting greenfield architectures may separate AI orchestration (Brain) from infrastructure (Muscle) while cautioning against indiscriminate rewrites.
