Oh boy. I'm the second author. The official announcement will be in April 1st at the SIGBOVIK conference ( http://sigbovik.org/2016 ), but I guess someone broke the press embargo! By the way: It works, try it ;)

I can see that it is working. Thanks for the amazing product. Will it be apt to share the model in which you are planning to monetise the product? Thanks once again! ;)

Did you also use ExcelNet to help generate the buzzwords to describe all the technical advancements in ExcelNet? Nice whitepaper btw.:-)

But actually this is a good idea.

Not in the current form of course. Make it easy to ship excel data out to deep learning frameworks on the gpu using addins. Return and graph the results.

Excel is like crack for business, why not mix in a little deep learning pcp?

I'm really glad someone found this early, because I try and stay off the WWW on April 1st. Every site tries to be "funny" and pretty much just ends up being annoying, and DeepExcel would have just drowned in the noise then.

This though: hearty chuckles were produced. (The paper was was even type-set in LaTeX!)

I laughed because it was funny. Then I laughed again harder when I realized that it was supposed to be funny.

Wow! I didn't realize it was satirical and thought is the author a con or crazy. Then I headed here and the news broke out for me. I'm pretty sure majority of people who only read about ML in press will take it seriously.
