JAX is a project from Google designed to have as similar an API as numpy, but can be run on either a CPU or a GPU.

Possible benefits

  • Faster processing
  • GPU capability could entail some future-proofing
  • Similarity to numpy should reduce development friction

Possible downsides

  • Google project get killed sometimes
  • There are "sharp bits"

I don't think this is ready for primetime. There are a few too many system specific installment requirements and undocumented dependency mismatches
