Python and C++ have been used for countless large projects— each one for many more than typescript. It’s all about trade-offs that take into account your tasks, available coders at the project’s commencement, environment, etc.

People like to put companies that are household names on pedestals, but the choices they make are mostly guided by what their people can do and which choices give them the most value for free. They mostly operate how smaller companies do but they have a bigger R&D budget to address issues like scale that the larger market has little incentive to solve.

Also, this product is like a year old… it has barely hit its teething phase. I wouldn’t be surprised if the core is still the prototype someone whipped up as a proof of concept.

I reckon some believe these companies are basically magical, and are utterly astonished when they’re shown to be imperfect in relatively uninteresting ways. I’m a lot more concerned about the sanity of the AI ecosystem they operate in than the stability of some front-end Anthropic made.
