    I have to play devils advocate here because for every one of these cases, there is probably a dozen of similar stories where the ambitious new guy actually did nuke the system with…

    It's also largely dependent on the embeddings model as others have mentioned. Even if wikipedia doesn't have any words specifically referring to that monkey as "weird", the model i…

    Isn't it crazy that the entirety of human knowledge can be condensed down to fit on an SD card.

    This would be amazing! At lot of ML use cases are largely unfeasible in lambda on python without serious pruning. Latest version of tensorflow is 150mb uncompressed, add numpy pand…
