If Go interfaced with C as well as Python, I’d use it a lot more.

But I’m using the slower language because it still integrates with more things

For example, one reason AI is all in Python is because CUDA is basically part of the C ecosystem (ie build system)

Have you tried purego?

You can just embed the C library into the binary of the Go app call it directly in Go. Most of the time I have found calling C from Go faster or on par with calling C from Python.

Go interfaces with C better than Python does...
