The idea is indeed a differentiable programming. So what you tend to do a lot in modern machine learning is doing gradient descent. And having the ability to compute the derivative there is very, a very powerful thing. If you have a model that has millions of parameters, you don't want to compute the gradient numerically. That's where a differential programming is actually very helpful.
