I interned @ Google AI last summer; used notebooks nearly everyday. Estimated productivity gain is 3-5x.
Biggest tip I have is to turn auto reload on, then write the bulk of your code as modular functions and call functions within your notebooks. Keeps the notebook tidy and it’s easier to push your code this way.
It’s also easier for sharing since most people viewing your notebooks (mentors, people outside your team) are interested in results/artifacts such as metrics, generated text, images, audio, which notebooks display well (not your code).

- tastyminerals 7y agoYes, notebooks are good for studying.
