José Valim, creator of the Elixir programming
language, Chief Adoption Officer at Dashbit, and author of three
programming books, speaks with SE Radio host Gavin Henry about
what Elixir is today, what Livebook is, the five spearheads of
the new machine learning ecosystem for Elixir, and how they all
fit together. Valim describes why he created Elixir, what "the
beam" is, and how he pitches it to new users. This episode
examines things you can do with Livebook and how it is
well-aligned with machine learning, as well as why immutability
is important and how it works. They take a detailed look at a
range of topics, including tensors with Nx, traditional machine
learning with Scholar, data munging with Explorer, deep learning
and neural networks with Axon, Bumblebee and Huggingface, and
model creation basics. Brought to you by IEEE Computer Society
