Here's a fun blog post about bytecode VMs in surprising places.
Mildly hot take of mine: a bytecode VM in a GPU kernel is not as bad of an idea as one might think, and in some cases it can actually be the best solution. Fun examples in thread:

The Solvent-Excluded Surface (SES) is an essential representation of molecules which is massively used in molecular modeling and drug discovery since it represents the interacting surface between mole...

When dealing with noisy and/or partial inputs to describe a shape, the standard approach in geometry processing is to reconstruct a clean implicit surface first, and to do geometry on it.
But why this one in particular? What about all the other surfaces that would have been coherent with the input?
A set of very disciplined Voronoi seeds.

They are also well-behaved using images (if we ask them nicely)

Check out Venkat's work on a new graphics programming language on statically enforcing correctness of heterogeneous graphics programs (e.g., resources declared on host must match shaders at compile time). The compiler is open sourced and let us know if you have any comment!
Working with Cyprien Plateau-Holleville, Charles Dapogny, Edouard Oudet and Roya Mohayaee on shape optimization / partial optimal transport. A lot of work remains to do (in particular, Virtual Element method in 3D)
