Can you give a sketch of how you would like these examples to look? Any language is fine; you can pretend that libraries for GPGPU, backprop, and gradient-based optimization already exist.

I tried to do so myself and couldn't come up with anything significantly better, but I've been writing Python for a long time and might just be stuck in a local minimum :)

Sure.

Another comment has already pointed out that Julia framework. I'll relink it for completeness: https://fluxml.github.io

You can also look at Haskell's Grenade examples: https://github.com/HuwCampbell/grenade

Fundamentally different because the notion of what the compiler should be doing is fundamentally different, and the notion of how data should be input is somewhat different.
