Doushen’s latest open source project has only one-seventh of the memory of OpenClaw, faster startup and better concurrency (referring to AI peripheral support functions)!

Recently, we have seen a small trend.

Whether it is Doushen, a project based on golang, or opencl-rust.

After the initial popular projects are promoted and used on a large scale, the shortcomings of Python in covering all capabilities can be exposed to a certain extent, especially the disadvantages in architectural stability and performance.

Go and rust are undoubtedly better choices in terms of performance.

Python is responsible for the agent interaction layer (AI ecology is rich and easy to get started), and other parts are left to suitable and better languages, because now both model reasoning and agent itself The 10s limit of interaction has become the norm.

Perhaps when later models have second-level reasoning capabilities, python will slowly be replaced.

Before that, it will be safe for a long time.

Of course, none of the above answers may be correct.

Maybe new programming languages ​​suitable for agents will gradually become popular, but the topic of programming languages ​​​​is no longer as concerned as it was in the past in the current AI era.
