#119922 — C++ is doomed

I just surveyed a local book store for computers: Among the Top100 in 30 days, 
the most books is for AI using Python. C++? zero. 

Actually, I am not surprised. It seems C++ is the play ground of "C++ inventor's" ideal,
which is proven not very useful (or more problems than its benefits, practically).

C++ is not for beginners.

Almost every job of my career required C++.  AI is not trusted in my 
industry.

If you have little use for C++, find something that suits you and your target 
problems.  Recommending others to ignore it is nieve at best.

Best of luck to you in your career.

On the contrary, I use C++ exclusively.

Mostly, because I think I proved P!=NP, so I started to study AI. Many looked to
me are misconception, but some app. (auto pilot, AlphaGO, ChatGPT,..) can not be
ignored. I feel NPU (or GPU) will be part of future computation (including 
embeded computing). C/C++ has to support the new hardware. And thus, new 
hardware based app. maybe 'system tool' will appear.

AI is not necessarily "sell the business to an unknown
agent hiding in an arithmetized/algebraized information
model guaranteeing neither accuracy nor provenance".


Adaptive containers and feedback-directed optimization,
for example, all these sorts of ideas of "optimization"
as "intelligence" are around a lot, and can result instead
of making work for a farm of GPU's to dribble you soft-balls
while it's crypto-mining on your dime, adaptive containers
and feedback-directed optimization, as an example.

Statistical inference itself and made massively-wide
parallel, can be an open book of sorts, exploiting
deep/wide embarrassingly-parallel for "intelligence".


Even models of inference and reasoning like all the
sorts of ye olde "agents" and what can go a long ways
toward making advantange as of tools and calling the
ability to make things actionable "intelligent".


For the "verum and certum" for verification and certification,
has that pretty much AI is a lot, lot easier than it's
sold out to be, besides how easy it is to impress average
onlookers with a mechanical turk or what, your average commodity
system can run a-plenty of making tractable data, for inference.

It shouldn't matter the language, the intelligence should
pretty much right-quick be able to re-write it in any.

Then, C++ is a particularly optimized and terse yet
expressive form for well-defined object-oriented
procedural then functional programming with a close
affinity to the hardware runtime as usually expressed
by its C roots as of system-programming languages in
the control plane, it's plenty intelligent.

"Doomed", ....

Oh yeah. Let the AI write code, then you are going to make sure it did 
not make a mistake?

Look, just because lawyers have been dragged over the coals for
tabling motions with non-existant cases referenced by AI is no reason
to suspect that AI code could have any problems

There is also no reason to suspect it would not have any problems.

So far the most adequate description of the state of the current AI is 
provided by this infographics: https://xkcd.com/1838/

From your reply, I would assume you have no real knowledge of AI.
Anyone has little knowledge of AI won't expect it can provide exact answer.
If you understand what O(2^N) mean, there is (pretty much) no exact answer
(algorithm, precisely) for such problems.

As long as it did not screw up as much as human programmers.  I had way
too much job security fixing code written by hot shot programmers.  It
was still crappy code as I couldn't do complete redesign or rework in
most cases as the pain level to management caused by the bad code wasn't
high enough.  I could have saved them serious money in cloud costs
otherwise.

It's funny when the runtime for certain langs are written in C++?

The original claim was "the most books is for AI using Python. C++? zero."

It looks like some people do not know the AI support in Python is all 
written in C++. Some people must write it and maintain it, so the masses 
can use it via Python.

The Java-VM and the native Code inside the Java Runtime are written in C++.

C is still nice wrt creating the API's for libraries. The library itself 
can be written in C++. However, it uses C for its exposed API.
