Swift Meets Python: A Practical Guide to Exploring AI Libraries

Learn how to explore Python-based AI libraries using modern AI tools —so you can understand the core concepts and bring them to life in your Swift apps.

We, as Swift developers, are at a HUGE disadvantage when working with AI. That is because the AI community is primarily operating in Python and other web-focused languages, with very few tools, libraries, and community support for Swift developers.

So even if we do want to work with Swift only, we often need to understand the Python implementations in order to apply the same concepts to our Swift-based apps.

Luckily, new tools and models from the AI community have become incredibly powerful for this kind of work. Here’s a super simple way you can work with Python or other web-based code to understand the core ideas—and then implement your own version in Swift.
