How does Tinygrad fall short? Performance is fine [0]. It's much smaller than Pytorch and all, but that's kind of in the name.
I've been hearing about MLIR and OpenXLA for years through Tensorflow, but I've never seen an actual application using them. What out there makes use of them? I'd originally hoped it'd allow Tensorflow to support alternate backends, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
