ML tooling

Experts have shared their insights on various aspects of machine learning (ML) tooling:

1. Making Deep Learning Accessible:

   • Jeremy Howard from MLOps.community highlights the goal of eliminating the need for coding in ML tooling to make deep learning accessible to a broader audience. He critiques the current state of AutoML, especially Google's approach, but praises HuggingFace's AutoML as more promising 1.

2. Bridging Gaps for Deployment:

   • Hamel Husain on the Gradient Dissent - A Machine Learning Podcast points out the necessity of collaboration across disciplines (e.g., UX, DevOps) to deploy ML successfully. Tooling alone can't bridge gaps; organizational alignment is also crucial 2.

3. State of ML Tooling:

   • Lukas Biewald discusses the rapid evolution of ML tooling, noting the influx of new tools and the challenge of staying updated. He emphasizes the opportunity to create superior tools that can replace in-house solutions, mentioning Weights & Biases as a pioneering example 3.
