I'm curious why there hasn't been a push towards more efficient compiled languages like golang?

I don't work with machine learning and AI, but I used to do a lot of server-side programming with dynamic language. Switching to golang has been great. I'm far more productive with it and the CPU and memory savings have been great. Isn't ML the kind of domain where CPU cycles and memory matter?



Because of GPUs.
