I try to generally keep up with the overall trends, but I’m an engineer at a resource-constrained startup, not a research scientist. I want to see real-world application, at least mid-term value, minimum lock-in, and strong supportability. Until then, I just don’t have time to think about it.

  • I'd be interested to hear why people are downvoting this.

    • I did scoff a bit when the response to "it's hard to keep up with what's actually important in AI" with "just read this summary of the 10 most relevant papers every week".

      Unless you are really working on the bleeding edge (or trying to make money by predicting the hype machine) you probably need to know about one or two developments every 6 months. The summary of 60 papers in that time might not be what everyone needs.

      To be clear, I didn't downvote here and I have no issue with you promoting a blog!

    • The focus of your link appears to be papers and research. I would imagine somebody with less time for these developments is looking for more practical "here's how you can use this cool new AI" style articles instead.
