Blaze: A High Performance C++ Math Library

Linear algebra routines seem like one of the worst possible use cases for current LLMs.

Large amounts of repetitive yet meaningfully detailed code. Algorithms that can (and often are) implemented using different conventions or orders of operations. Edge cases out the wazoo.

A solid start seems like it would be using LLMs to write extensive test suites which you can use to verify these new implementations.

Yet for me all this C++/CUDA code is a lot of boilerplate to express dense and supposedly very tired concepts. I thought LLMs were supposed to help with the boilerplate. But yeah I guess it won't work.

And yes, it's nice to build unit test and benchmark harnesses. But those were never really such time-wasters for me.
