The analogy with Typescript makes sense, because Mojo is trying to become a statically typed superset of Python, similar to how Typescript relates to Javascript.

The rationale for Mojo seems to be well-grounded. Not just because of the type safety aspect (so far in Python this was not statically enforced, the type hints can only affect code quality checks through external utilities and linters). The bigger benefit is the utilization of modern parallel computing capabilities of CPU and GPU (see more: vectorization and SIMD). This is particularly important for AI research and machine learning computations.

In my view this is a natural progression of technology. The question itself is not really concrete and too open-ended. There are valid reasons for Mojo but it is still in its infancy. Will see if it ends up as the go-to language for AI, and able to replace Python.
