I've been really curious about BEAM languages but never made the leap. How well does it manage heterogeneous compute? I'm used to other languages making me define what happens on CPU vs GPU and defining cross-machine talk around those kinds of considerations.

What parts of that does elixir (and company) allow me to not write? Is there a good balance between abstractions when it comes to still maybe wanting control over what goes where (heteregeneity)?

Super curious and kinda looking for an excuse here :)
