Maybe what was missing as the llms to be honest to get these kind of architectures to work as you can have it run optimisations loop against hardware like this.

yeah well there's a perennial problem of needing innovative languages to get this to work (Vine?) vs. the temptation to package this sw with chips and become a closed technology

I made Bil as a way to try and break that - built on Go (and LLVM) under BSD. Quite easy to run up a simple scheduler for any new architecture particularly if they are an LLVM target.

For sure, we need some sensible target for this to work with enough information to be able to generate performant code.
