MLIR aims to address software fragmentation, improve compilation for heterogeneous hardware, significantly reduce the cost of building domain specific compilers, and aid in connecting existing compilers together. [Torch-MLIR](https://github.com/llvm/torch-mlir) -Multiple Vendors use MLIR as the middle layer, mapping from platform frameworks like PyTorch, JAX, and TensorFlow into MLIR and then progressively lowering down to their target hardware. We have seen half a dozen custom lowerings from PyTorch to MLIR. Having canonical lowerings from the PyTorch ecosystem to the MLIR ecosystem would provide much needed relief to hardware vendors to focus on their unique value rather than implementing yet another PyTorch frontend for MLIR. The goal is to be similar to current hardware vendors adding LLVM target support instead of each one also implementing Clang / a C++ frontend. +Multiple Vendors use MLIR as the middle layer, mapping from platform frameworks like PyTorch, JAX, and TensorFlow into MLIR and then progressively lowering down to their target hardware.
