Swift for tensorflow. Didn’t workout though

While S4TF died, the idea (autodiff in the lang) still lives and is slowly and quietly being worked on: https://github.com/apple/swift/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+autodiff

Very true. It’s just a shame that it did not make it. I was very looking forward to it

Me too, but it was Google project, and what Google does to its projects..?

I think relying on TF would have been a mistake. This deep integration approach will be more fruitful in the long run. Also, if anybody wants to do ML in Swift on Apple platforms, there is awesome MPS Graph.
