Chris Lattner (@clattner_llvm) is one of the most influential engineers of the past two decades. He created LLVM, Swift, contributed to TensorFlow, and created the Mojo programming language. What was the story about creating Swift - and why did he face resistance inside Apple when wanting to replace Objective C? What did he learn at Tesla, Google and CPU maker SiFive, that led him to working on Mojo at Modular? We cover these and many more in today's episode.

I believe in the human potential of people that want to create things. And that’s fundamentally why I love software is that you can create anything that you can imagine.”
