I work quite close to these topics and the computational complexity of compiler optimization is harder than sorting algorithms. And while I’ve seen ML develop heuristics for combinatorial logic, pushdown automata and Turning machines are still too complex. Though we’re approaching pushdown automata already. I think ML driven compiler optimizations are at least 10 years away. Likely more.
