CTOnews.com, October 20, the Mojo programming language recently landed on the Mac platform, bringing AI developers a programming experience similar to Python.

The development of the Mojo programming language is led by Chris Lattner, who is also one of the main drivers of Apple's Swift programming language.

Lattner specialized in Xcode development during his time at Apple, then worked for a while at Tesla before joining Google's Brain AI project in 2017.

Lattner co-founded Modular AI in 2022 and is responsible for developing the Mojo programming language.

The Mojo language was available for download in September this year, and only Linux systems are supported in the initial launch. In addition to compilers, Mojo SDK includes a complete set of developers and IDE tools that can be used to build and iterate Mojo applications.

Modular AI said that since the launch of the Mojo programming language on May 2, more than 120000 developers have signed up to use Mojo Playground, and more than 19000 developers have actively discussed Mojo on Discord and GitHub.

According to reports, Mojo is a high-performance "Python++" programming language for computing, launched for AI developers, with the passage of time, it will develop into a superset of Python.

Currently, Mojo supports seamless integration with arbitrary Python code and has an extensible programming model for performance-critical systems, including accelerators commonly found in artificial intelligence (such as GPU).
