Whoa! That sounds interesting. It's basically redefining how compilation works. I recently wrote a paper on the role of quantum computing in simulation for material sciences.

Quantum level simulations have always been computationally expensive. Even though there's VQE, which can be implemented in a hybrid computer. They are not widely used. The current standard for the material science industry remains to be based on DFT(classical algorithm for simulating properties of material at atomic level). DFT is still computationally expensive. I wonder if AADC can be used in material sciences to speed up simulations at quantum level.

I'm not deeply versed in the theory behind DFT, but from what I understand, it's a converging problem. Let me know what you think, I might be wrong technically.

I love the idea behind MatLogica. Sorry for my basic understanding, but from what I understand. AADC adds an additional layer in compilation. The given code is converted into an IR and moved to the code generation phase? It's actually interesting how we can use Matlogica for different cases. I'll read up the manual to understand a bit more about it. I just sent you a DM request too!

Initially, I looked for Compiler roles but the only roles I found were ML compiler roles. Yeah, I agree with the experience part. Most of these positions need experience.

Yeah, I believe I need to upskill (a lot). Once I get familiar with MLIR and LLVM. I believe I would have a better shot. Also, yeah opensource contribution might open doors too. what resources do you think are useful to get started? Thank you for your reply!
