Hi everyone,

This has been something that has been on my mind for a while now, but with my increasingly more complex optimisations being developed for the Free Pascal Compiler and the code becoming an ever bigger spiderweb of conditions, it got me to start wondering... might compiler optimisation be a candidate for AI? Often I try to hand-optimise assembly language to get the same output in fewer cycles (and fewer bytes too if possible), and then see if I can program the compiler to match it.  I can't hope to catch every possible optimisation though, and I wonder if using an AI in some way to develop more efficient machine code has ever been a serious contender for research.  I have heard of stories like the Deepmind AI finding a faster way to multiply matrices, so it seems logical that it can improve instruction processes.

This is probably a lazy question, but what would be a good set of resources when it comes to beginning machine learning, or at the very least building simple models?  When it comes to hardware, I have a couple of 3060 Tis at my disposal for some parallel computation.
