WasmEdge is one of the most exciting Wasm runtimes out there. It is part of the CNCF and does support a bunch interesting functionality (wasi-nn, integration with Docker via runwasi, etc)

what's the deal with wasi-nn? (who is supporting it?) Seems super high level and somewhat brittle

Disclaimer: I am a maintainer of WasmEdge. WASI-NN allows Wasm to be a wrapper of native tensor frameworks — very much the same way Python is a wrapper for Tensorflow and PyTorch.

The benefit of using Wasm as a wrapper is its high performance (Use Rust to prepare data) and multi language support (inference in JS!)

WasmEdge supports Tensorflow, PyTorch, and OpenVINO as wasi-NN backends.
