AutoTVM is a template base tuner, meaning that it optimizes the human written templates, which are exactly TOPI schedules.
In short, AutoTVM tunes schedule templates in TOPI, so AutoTVM can do nothing without TOPI. What you expected should be the auto_schduler which is in experimental stage now. auto_scheduler generates schedules directly from the compute, which means we won’t need TOPI anymore in the future (ideally), but we still need to take a while to make auto_scheduler fully functional and stable enough to replace AutoTVM and TOPI. --- [Visit Topic](https://discuss.tvm.apache.org/t/now-that-we-have-autotvm-why-we-need-topi/7886/2) to respond.
