Accidental Development of an LLVM Compiler for JAX via Quantum Compiler Catalyst

The article describes the accidental creation of an LLVM compiler for JAX while developing a quantum compiler called Catalyst, enabling direct compilation of classical JAX code to machine code via MLIR and LLVM. This approach offers benefits like standalone AOT binaries and integration with the broader LLVM ecosystem, bypassing traditional XLA workflows.
