For effective use of such vector instructions, languages like C/C++ really fail at giving enough hints to their compiler. An advanced inspection tool in clang/gcc would certainly help humans to write compiler friendly code, but the real advance can only be taken with an improved programming language that designed specifically for such use. Perhaps the HN crowd is more knowledgable than me, but I fail to recognize any potentially useful language on the market to date. Perhaps Haskell or OCaml with compilers helped by advanced AI?
