Not enough details available on how it works. Would rather build my own at this point. Plus the way this is billed oversimplifies the whole model design process

Sorry to sound so negative, but I just earned a PhD in Machine Learning. How would you feel if you were replaced by an API? :-(
- akadien 16y agoI know. It's worse than being outsourced.
- eob 16y agoNext thing we know, the Tea Party is going to start protesting APIs taking our jobs. EDIT: In seriousness, though, this is a good thing for ML PhDs like you (and eventually me in a couple more years). Building the progress that's already been made in the field into easy-to-use APIs frees us up to work on the next steps. Now if they just released an Integer Linear Programming API that would give us access to their compute cloud...... :)
- dan00 16y agoWell, expertise isn't only needed for building something, but also for using it.
- stuff4ben 16y agotrust me, you have nothing to worry about. Us noobs with regular bachelor degrees who use this will get into trouble because we can't understand the results and the math is all over our heads. We still need you PhD's...(gives T_S_ a hug)
- T_S_ 16y agoThanks man, sniffle. Actually I'm not too worried about that. More worried that the guys at google are waaaay smarter than me :-)
