Mojo Is Finally Open Source... So I Tested It

Mojo 1.0 is finally here, the compiler is now open source, and Qualcomm has acquired Modular, but the bigger question is whether Mojo actually delivers on its promise of Python-like code with much higher performance across CPU and GPU workloads. In this video, I test Mojo 1.0 on an M4 Pro, compare real performance against pure Python and NumPy, compile and run a GPU kernel on a MacBook, and dig into the 68,000× faster-than-Python claim that helped put Mojo on the map. 🔗 Relevant Links Modular - https://mojolang.org/ Mojo Repo - https://github.com/modular/modular/tree/main Mojo Docs - https://mojolang.org/docs/ ❤️ More about us Radically better observability stack: https://betterstack.com/ Written tutorials: https://betterstack.com/community/ Example projects: https://github.com/BetterStackHQ 📱 Socials Twitter: https://twitter.com/betterstackhq Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/betterstackhq/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@betterstack LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/betterstack 📌 Chapters: 00:00 Mojo 1.0 Is Finally Here 00:28 What is Mojo Language? 01:00 Testing Mojo 1.0 on a MacBook 02:40 What Mojo 1.0 Actually Means 04:20 Qualcomm Bought Modular — What Changes? 05:00 Mojo’s 68,000× Faster Than Python Claim 05:25 Mojo vs Python vs NumPy Benchmarks 06:30 How Stable Is Mojo 1.0 Really? 07:15 Who Should Actually Use Mojo?
