AI Model Deployment Challenges - AI 工程团队面临着基础设施复杂性的问题,需要在不同平台和模型之间进行部署,并希望简化流程,使用户能够使用统一的客户端访问任何模型,而无需复杂的代码更改 [2][3][4] - 行业需要一种简单且标准化的方法,使开发人员能够轻松地将其内部构建的 AI 模型或在 GitHub 上找到的开源模型集成到其代码库中,并易于执行 [7] - 行业预测 AI 部署的未来是混合推理,即小型模型在本地或边缘位置与大型云 AI 模型协同工作,因此开发人员需要转向更低级别、更接近硬件且响应更快的解决方案 [8][9] Python Compiler Solution - 该方案构建了一个 Python 编译器,允许开发人员编写简单的 Python 代码,并将其转换为可在任何地方运行的微型自包含二进制文件,包括云、Apple 芯片等 [5] - 该编译器使用 LLM 在编译管道中生成 C++ 和 Rust 代码,从而能够运行各种 AI 模型,并扩展到服务器端以外的更多位置 [6][33] - 编译器通过 tracing 技术生成函数内部所有操作的图表示,最初尝试使用 PyTorch 的 Torch FX,但由于其对 PyTorch 代码的关注和对 fake 输入的依赖而放弃,转而使用 LLM 生成 traces,最终通过分析 Python 代码的抽象语法树并使用内部启发式方法构建内部表示 [13][14][15][16][17][18] - 编译器采用类型传播技术,通过分析 Python 函数的签名和 C++ 的原生类型信息,推断并约束生成代码中的变量类型,从而解决 Python 动态类型与 C++ 静态类型之间的差异 [25][26][27][28] Implementation and Usage - 通过类型信息传播,编译器能够生成正确的 C++ 代码,并将其编译为可在任何设备或平台上本地运行的动态库 [34][35][36] - 可以使用 FFI(外部函数接口)从 JavaScript 和 Node.js 调用编译后的库,从而允许在各种环境中使用编译后的 AI 模型 [37][38][39] - 通过创建一个 OpenAI 风格的客户端,可以将编译后的嵌入模型暴露给用户,从而使用户能够像使用官方 OpenAI 客户端一样访问任何开源模型 [40][41]
