Oh, machine learning, I was hoping it was about ML (Meta Language) compilers with insights on stuff like Ocaml or SML.


Right? Had (brief) moment of joy at seeing it used in a non-deep-learning context, alas..

Digression: perhaps a retaliation is in order for all the name overloading caused by the AI gold rush? We could start calling Meta Languages "Deep Lingos", "Gnostic Abstract Interfaces", "Generalised Programmable Types"


Well, these ML compilers are pretty simple, actually :)


Discussed (a bit) at the time:
