"Some of Deepmind's recent papers are tricky to reproduce. The Paper also omitted specific details about the implementation, and we had to fill the gaps in our own way."
So, I'm not the only one seeing this issue. It seems like many recent AI papers want to look as impressive as possible, wile giving you as little implementation info as possible. This bothers me, because it opposes the very purpose of research publication.
