Weird that there has been no significant adoption of Mojo. It has been quite some time since it got released and everyone is still using PyTorch. Maybe the license issue is a much bigger deal than people realize.

It says at the top:

> write state of the art kernels

Mojo seems to be competing with C++ for writing kernels. PyTorch and Julia are high-level languages where you don't write the kernels.

You can write kernels with Python using CUDA and Open API SDKs in 2025, that is one of the adoption problems regarding Mojo.
