ProgramAsWeights: MIT-licensed compiler turns natural language into small neural functions
yuntiandeng · x · 2026-09-25
yuntiandeng confirms ProgramAsWeights compiler is MIT-licensed and open source. The tool compiles natural language specs (e.g., email triage) into small .paw neural functions runnable locally via a Python SDK, using public Standard/Compact checkpoints with no hosted service or API key. The full pipeline including a learned LoRA mapper lives in compile.py. Requires Python 3.10+ and a BF16-capable NVIDIA GPU (Ampere+, 16GB recommended); models download from Hugging Face on first run.
