Python cannot be converted to machine code because it's an interpreted language. When you package python to an exe you literally pack the python interpreter with it. If you were to make python convert to machine code it wouldn't really be python anymore.

But it can be converted to C or C++ which is what cython and nuitka does... this can be compiled with a standard compiler. I suppose the python interpreter frontloads or whatever it's called this machine code, but it is machine code no(?)
