A case for Go as the best language for AI agents

I wonder how many tokens are spent generating: if err != nil {return err} for large programs and over a long period of time.

May be this is good incentive to improve error handling in Go.

That happens often enough that it might have its own token, if you BPE-encoded specifically for golang.
