OpenAI is hiring a Software Engineer, Trainium in San Francisco with a salary range of $295k–380k/yr, to build and optimize its inference stack for AWS Trainium, developing high-performance kernels an…
Modular open-sourced its Mojo programming language under the Apache 2.0 license on August 18, three weeks after Qualcomm completed its acquisition of the company, releasing the compiler and developer …
Qualcomm open-sourced the Mojo compiler on GitHub under Apache 2.0 with LLVM exceptions on Tuesday, three weeks after closing its $3.9 billion acquisition of Modular on 29 July. The move, which makes …
Modular Inc. has open-sourced the Mojo programming language compiler and toolchain under the Apache 2.0 license with LLVM exceptions, making the full source code available in its GitHub repository. Th…
Chromia's Rell language compiler was rewritten in five weeks using AI agents, a task that would have taken most of a year by hand, according to a developer who led the effort. The rewrite replaced a t…
A research paper, “GPU Offload in Rust: Portable, Safe, and Fast” (arXiv:2608.13759), introduces GPU programming support directly into rustc, allowing developers to write GPU kernels in safe Rust with…
A new research paper by Manuel S. Drehwald, Marcelo Domínguez, Kevin Sala, Alán Aspuru-Guzik, and Johannes Doerfert demonstrates that using LLVM's Offload infrastructure with the Rust programming lang…
A Rust library called from C# over the same pointers Burst uses runs a game AI workload 6.4 times faster than Unity's default Mono runtime, 4.7 times faster than IL2CPP, and about 2.3 times faster tha…
AI assistance is making it easier to write JIT compilers with fast compile times by directly targeting assembly, according to a developer building the pgrust database. The author demonstrates building…
A new JIT compiler built with AI assistance compiles code in about 5 microseconds, enabling JIT compilation of every SQL query in the pgrust database, according to a blog post by its developer. The po…
A developer proposes building a TypeScript compiler on top of the Go compiler to give TypeScript native concurrency and performance, arguing this would let it compete with Go for high-performance back…
Five rust-lang teams ratified an LLM usage policy authored by Jynn Nelson that allows AI to analyze and review code but not author it, with a circuit breaker that freezes new LLM-created PRs for at le…
The cuda-oxide project introduces proof-carrying views that eliminate bounds-check overhead in CUDA kernels written in Rust, boosting GEMM performance from 2,942 to 7,159 GFLOPS (2.43x) with only ~0.1…
The LLVM project has adopted a formal AI tool use policy requiring contributors to keep a human in the loop, review all LLM-generated content before submission, and label substantial tool-generated co…
The GCC Steering Committee announced July 29 a formal policy rejecting AI-generated code contributions of more than roughly 15 lines to the GNU Compiler Collection, citing GPL copyright integrity conc…
The GCC steering committee has adopted a formal policy banning legally significant contributions — roughly 15 lines of code or text — that include or are derived from LLM-generated content, framing th…
The GCC Steering Committee has adopted a policy banning legally significant AI-generated contributions, defined as roughly 15 lines of code or text, while allowing smaller AI-assisted edits if clearly…
Xanadu's quantum compiler Catalyst, built for the PennyLane library, accidentally became an LLVM compiler for JAX when users fed it pure JAX NumPy code without quantum instructions, bypassing XLA to l…
A developer built rai-lint, a linter that enforces AI attribution footers in Git commits, and rai-commit-badge, a GitHub Action that reads those footers to generate a Shields.io badge showing the perc…
Kaappi, a complete R7RS-small Scheme implementation written in Zig, has been released with 641 built-in procedures, 32 syntax forms, 14 standard libraries, 171 SRFIs, a C FFI, OS threads and fibers, a…
