AI-driven kernel search reached near-expert performance on two kernels
On the two kernels studied—attention and Mamba SSM—AI-driven evolutionary kernel search, grounded in structured cross-platform translation, reached near-expert performance on Apple Silicon without requiring GPU experts to start from scratch. The authors state they do not yet know how far this generalizes.
