I've taken Chris Lattner / Jeremy Howard's lessons on Swift for TensorFlow [0][1]. I'll try to paraphrase their answers to your questions:
There aren't major benefits to using Swift4TensorFlow yet. But (most likely) there will be within the next year or two. You'll be able to do low level research (e.g. deformable convolutions) in a high level language (Swift), rather than needing to write CUDA, or waiting for PyTorch to write it for you.
