Does anyone know the latest on the Swift-Python bridge from the TensorFlow team[0]? Is this still in development or usable for iOS apps?

This [0] is an equivalent/tracking project. I would be very interested if it gains iOS support.

I believe that you need the S4TF fork of the Swift compiler. It might be doable to swap it into Xcode as part of an alternate toolchain, but it's not likely to be easy.

Note that Apple will not let you put an application built with an alternative toolchain on the App Store.
