  I have been casually playing around with TensorFlow for Swift since it was announced. It shows promise but I question long term support and development. The Julia language with the Flux deep learning library is another very interesting but not mainstream path to take.

    What are your concerns around the support / dev? Google has a fairly sizable team around it, it has a fast path to adoption by the large pool of swift devs and fast.ai, and of course, google hype. Chris leaving doesn't seem to be an issue: https://twitter.com/clattner_llvm/status/1222032740897284097 https://twitter.com/clattner_llvm/status/1222032740897284097

      Google has kind of a reputation for killing projects.

      I hope there is no long term support problem, but I don’t know. I am sort-of addicted to Lisp languages, but I admit there is a lot to like about Swift, and TensorFlow turtles all the way down in Swift is a great idea.
