It is a small turnoff that you need to use their cloud model ‘compiler’ but I still think I might get the USB Dev device. I am retiring in a couple off weeks from my job managing a machine learning team and I intend on being a ‘gentleman scientist’ studying things of interest, without worrying about immediate practicality. Of most interest is local ML using tensorflow.js and devices like the Edge TPU, and also hybrid symbolic AI and deep neural net systems. Anyway, good to see competition for edge devices.
