Cheng Lou unveiled Handwired, a toy project that converts ordinary JavaScript code into a neural net:
- No training required
- Outputs exactly match the original JS program
- Fully differentiable
Everything runs in a browser without a GPU — effectively turning any JS program into a gradient-accessible function.
