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.

I'm on the systems side, and I find some of what Chris and team are doing with Mojo pretty interesting and could be useful to eradicate a bunch of polyglot ffi mess across the board. I can't invest in it or even start discussions around using it until it's actually open.

Yeah I'm in the same boat. I plan to prototype in python and then speed up the slow bits in a low level language. I've narrowed my options to C++ and Mojo.

C++ just seems like a safer bet but I'd love something better and more ergonomic.
