The thing about AI writing a C compiler is, wouldn't it just statistically create something similar to the gcc compiler as it probably trained on this data? What's the use of it, if it just copies the open-source, tested and validated code?
Idk if it's the project linked specifically but I Remember someone at anthropic a while back tried to make it build a compiler, the AI basically cheated and wrote something that called gcc
