Could you build this?
No A programming language that compiles to Apple Neural Engine binaries needs undocumented ANE instruction formats, a custom Mach-O backend, and an on-chip training runtime, which requires deep specialized expertise.
What it would actually take: The ANE is undocumented, so the project depends on reverse engineering its instruction set and hardware command format, then building a compiler backend that emits valid HWX Mach-O binaries. It also needs an on-device runtime that handles gradients and optimizers on the chip. This takes compiler engineers with hardware reverse-engineering experience and access to Apple silicon.
