Disagree, otherwise I obviously wouldn't have written this piece. ;) Synthetic data (SD) is not a silver bullet that will solve all problems, but it opens up a lot of opportunities. I'm seeing cool startups using SD to accelerate their R&D efforts and launch products in production in ways I didn't see 2 years ago. Imho, the quality of SD is reaching a tipping point and the sim2real gap is starting to disappear.
- throwlaplace 7y agoThis not a personal attack but I would just like to my point out the insane number of weasel words/marketing speak phrases (ie intentionally imprecise but rhetorically powerful terms) in your response >is not a silver bullet >opens up a lot of opportunities >accelerate their R&D efforts >Imho >reaching a tipping point >gap >starting to disappear. This is what it reads like: "we're getting to being able to approach the cusp of potentially honing in on the vicinity of the realization of this technology in the future" So your entire response doesn't commit to any strong claim at all but it sure sounds like it does! Incidentally I wonder if you're aware you're doing this or if it comes, subconsciously, from reading lots of writing that's like this.
