Your honesty is appreciated. Facts are welcome too.

What's "our code"? The strongly connected set of open source software that happens to be written in English?
- logicslave 6y agoOur code means code written by individuals working within the USA or at an American Institution. I work in machine learning research and keep up with all of the top papers. I have exited on an ml startup that I founded. Very few coming out of china are top papers. Anyone can publish to arxiv. Measuring whether a model is state of the art is incredibly complex, overfitting to specific datasets is rampant. Its also ridiculous that I am being downvoted.

USA occasionally has a reputation for being insular, but I'm happy to see you bucking the trend and embracing institutes across the continent of America. I suppose I'm reading too much into why "an American Institute" gets capitalised but "china" or "chinnese" does not? > overfitting to specific datasets is rampant. Are your conclusions the result of having overfit to the software/research in your field you've looked at? I don't know either way, but forgive me if I sense a tiny bit of bias.
