Port of srush/GPU-Puzzles to Metal using MLX Custom Kernals.
GPUs are crucial in machine learning because they can process data on a massively parallel scale. While it's possible to become an expert in machine learning without writing any GPU code, building intuition is challenging when you're only working through layers of abstraction. Additionally, as models grow in complexity, the need for developers to write efficient, high-performance kernels becomes increasingly important to leverage the power of modern hardware.
