Can CODA Enable LLMs and Beginners to Write Lightning‑Fast Transformer Kernels?
CODA rewrites Transformer blocks as GEMM‑epilogue programs, exposing five primitive building blocks that let both AI‑generated code and human programmers fuse memory‑intensive operations into the GEMM epilogue, eliminating costly tensor moves and achieving up to 1.8× speed‑ups on H100 GPUs for RMSNorm, SwiGLU, RoPE and other components, while preserving numerical accuracy.
