Wow, we really needed to whittle it down this week!
This industry is full of individual powerhouses innovating, researching, optimizing and sharing new technology, applications, and knowledge.
We were particularly impressed this week by neural photo editing (magic!) and the quality of teaching at last weekend’s Deep Learning School, the video recordings of both days are available on youtube.
Here’s to hoping next week will be half as exciting as this one.
