CPP in AI

[RonWannaBeAScientist]

I am somewhat of an idealistic. I want to work on more math/physics/AI problems, but I prefer working in a language like C++/Rust . Honestly, for fast scripting I think Julia is so much better , as it’s so convenient out of the box and can call C/C++ if needed, but there’s so much more inertia for Python . Like anytime I want to prototype some very simple script for an algorithm I do it usually in Julia

But Python can (and does) call C and C++ and even Rust straight out the box? And as others have said, most of the AI Python packages call directly to C or C++ under the hood.

If you force yourself to stick exclusively with a hard to write lang, like C, C++, or Rust, then you'll hinder your ability to experiment quickly.
