What changed
Embeds dynamic probabilistic models in Python/PyTorch with sample/parameter primitives and composable Poutine effect handlers, supporting scalable approximate inference.
Scientific scope
Embeds dynamic probabilistic models in Python/PyTorch with sample/parameter primitives and composable Poutine effect handlers, supporting scalable approximate inference. Universal language expressivity does not make arbitrary posterior inference tractable or exact. Practical stochastic variational inference and user-specified guides are approximate. NUTS, SVI, automatic differentiation and effect-handler concepts are inherited; v1's journal header is an unfinished template, not proof of a 2018 journal publication.

The linked original sources describe the stated contribution and its evidence limits. WRS has not independently rerun the experiments or certified a proof.
