ML needs a new programming language – Interview with Chris Lattner

ML seems to be doing just fine with python and cuda.

Python and CUDA are not very well adapted for embedded ML.

Yeah the rate of progress in AI definitely makes it seem like that from the outside for me too.

But having never written cuda, I have to rely on authority to some extent for this question. And it seems to me like few are in a better position to opine on whether there's a better story to be had for the software-hardware boundary in ML than the person who wrote MLIR, Swift-for-Tensorflow (alongside with making that work on TPUs and GPUs), ran ML at Tesla for some time, was VP at SiFive, ... etc.
