Your guess is wrong. Besides the fact that there's much more to life than matmul (for which triton is just ok), the other obvious fact is that triton has exactly 1 frontend (python) and there's much more to life than that frontend.

I find that basically in every thread about low-level work there's someone making some weird comment about how triton or mojo or XYZ supplants CUDA or assembly or whatever. I can't understand how this comes about because absolutely no one working in these areas thinks XYZ is going to supplant anything. So it's invariably outsiders making these claims and I cannot fathom why any outsider would be motivated to make claims from the outside.
