Reply to comment by fastglow in [D] Why are we stuck with Python for something that require so much speed and parallelism (neural networks)? by vprokopev

Every time I need to manipulate tensors I have to describe my algorithm in terms of vectorized pytorch functions and broadcasting, instead of more straightforward loops and indexing.

How is that supposed to make my job easier?

It sounds like your issues are more about PyTorch than Python itself. The need for vectorization is not specific to a language, though some libraries make it easier than others. If you want automatic vectorization, have a look at Jax, which has grown tremendously in the past couple years.
