I'm a runner, and it's a bit sad that distance running is not longer purely about the runner.

" This dominance continued in 2024, with adidas athletes wearing Adizero models winning six out of 12 World Major Marathons – more than any other brand."

and yes, of course i race in super shoes :-).

If you are going to go vertical then do it properly.

OpenAI could just build their own framework for internal use that works well on their silicon (see Jax+tpu)

Their starting point? Triton plus some triton libs. Jax chipped away at TF like this, and no reason why Triton can’t do the same to PyTorch.

I would also say that being an engineer at L8 is a meaningfully different set of skills than L7. The whole ‘what got you here won’t get you there idea’ starts at L7 for either track…

Chiplets and standardized hardware interfaces are a great start.

Now we just need to solve the remaining 90%: firmware, software, security, virtualization, …, …
