Honestly migrating from one language to another night actually be one of the best use cases for AI, if you don't change the architecture much it should be doable especially if it's a well tested codebase.
Maybe if the languages are very similar. If you convert C to Rust using AI it might work well but will most definitely not leverage the unique features of Rust. Might as well stay with C in that case. Migrating from an object oriented language like C++ to a language with another paradigm (such as Rust) will most likely produce a burning pile of shit
So not for microsoft products then.
In theory.
But there's no doubt all their tests will also be shat out from an LLM.
