Machine Learning in Elixir: error thrown in code snippet (page 44)

I had the same issue with Benchee - I saw someone mention in the elixir forum that Benchee was crashing the LiveBook cells a while back. I’m also on Apple Silicon - LiveBook v0.9.3, Elixir v1.14.2.

I was curious so:
{exla_time, exla_result} = :timer.tc(fn →
apply(EXLA.jit(&Softmax.softmax/1), [tensor])
end)

{standard_time, standard_result} = :timer.tc(fn →
Softmax.softmax(tensor)
end)

IO.puts “exla is #{standard_time/exla_time} times faster”
result (one run):
exla is 66.25130208333333 times faster

On multiple runs its between 450 and 500 times faster.
