> One practical detail is worth knowing. The new engine is CPU-only at the moment, so if you select a non-CPU backend and target (for example CUDA or OpenVINO through setPreferableBackend and setPreferableTarget), you will want the classic engine. So there's room for even better performance!

No one uses ONNXRuntime (nor the new engine in OpenCV 5) in production. For anything performance-sensitive, one would run models under TensorRT, as an example.

I've never understood how anyone comes into contact with it and thinks its anything more than an incredible inconvenience masked as the easy way of doing things. Given it a few good shakes for various uses and regretted the time spent each time

Earlier quoted context omitted.

The release post is AI-written with little human oversight and it shows.

I had to stop reading after: "This is not just another incremental release. OpenCV 5 is a major step forward." If a human can't be bothered to write a piece, I can't be bothered to read it.

i initially adopted this line of thinking. after exposure to arguably valid cases like translated articles, it now seems to me that the most efficient path forward (after first noting AI prose) is to scan past all language and evaluate whether or not useful content is encoded within. theres no benefit to anyone (except those benefitting from societal atrophy) in wasting brain cycles on unnecessary verbosity, however blanket rejection necessarily involves loss of valuable information.

It's not just annoying, it's tiring

Exactly, and all on an embedded system with quite restrictive settings and no overclocked Intel lastest generation combined with NVIDIA's 10k graphic cards.

Embedded systems can make network calls to powerful, GPU equipped servers.

They really shouldn't, though.
