A couple notes: 1. Work on modernizing erlport can still happen and be orthogonal to this 2. Moving data in and out of the GPU is expensive, sending the data to another process so it can copy it to the GPU would make us pay the penalty twice (and then again on the way back) 3. And even if you want to go ahead with 2, I would do it over the wire so I don't couple my nodes running Erlang/Elixir to the nodes running the Python stuff (because they may require different specs/scale) 4. We don't need people to move away from their computation frameworks, I will be happy if people start considering building new things on top of this one in the future :)
