ML needs a new programming language – Interview with Chris Lattner

Thank you for all the great interest in the podcast and in Mojo. If you're interested in learning more, Mojo has a FAQ that covers many topics (including "why not make Julia better" :-) here: https://docs.modular.com/mojo/faq/

Mojo also has a bunch of documentation https://docs.modular.com/mojo/ as well as hundreds of thousands of lines of open source code you can check out: https://github.com/modular/modular

Fan here.

I watched a lot of your talks about mojo, where you mention how mojo benefits from very advanced compiler technology. But i've never seen you give concret example of this advanced technology. Please, can you write a blog about that, going as deep and hardcore tech as you can ? As i'm not a compiler dev i'll probably understand 20% of it, but hopefully i'll start to get a sense of how advanced the whole thing is.

They've given a talk abut this on the LLVM dev meeting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEwTjZvy8vw&

They have some fancy tech around compile-time interpreter, mojopkg, and their code generator. They also have a graph compiler (not mentioned in the talk) that can fuse kernels written in Mojo.
