Mojo: A Supercharged Python for AI with Chris Lattner

Today we’re joined by Chris Lattner, Co-Founder and CEO of Modular. In our conversation with Chris, we discuss Mojo, a new programming language for AI developers. Mojo is unique in this space and simplifies things by making the entire stack accessible and understandable to people who are not compiler engineers. It also offers Python programmers the ability to make it high-performance and capable of running accelerators, making it more accessible to more people and researchers. We discuss the relationship between the Modular Engine and Mojo, the challenge of packaging Python, particularly when incorporating C code, and how Mojo aims to solve these problems to make the AI stack more dependable.
