It seems like there's a developing competitor to the Python ecosystem in the form of webgpu and js/ts. Being able to run anywhere with no native dependencies is a pretty huge advantage, it will be interesting to see if this steals momentum. I wonder how hard it would be to add support for this as an alternate backend to transformers.js.


I used to use Python heavily and favor JS now for these reasons. Portability is huge. I think JS is going to eat Python's lunch.


Imagine: Isomorphic neural nets that can run server or client side.
