Long time ago wanted to so something good and took a part in W3C webmachinelearning standardization group. Inspired by simplicity of brain.js wanted browser API to offer something similar to it - simple and easy to learn and easy to understand, also wanted a training API to be available. It is possible to keep simplicity of brain.js and flexibility of any other op set. And my oh my - did hit the wall HARD! Paid seats in W3C rules. They do what they want there. Your voice there matters only if it aligns well with their voice. Browsers API is now their own domain and whenever there is a conflict of interest their choice is obvious.

That group has been around for so long, seems mostly Intel folks. I just don’t get why the progress is so slow! I was trying to follow along, and joined calls, but the group moves like a glacier.

  If you don't get buy-in from the actual browser vendors, they can just ignore your W3C standards. Buy a couple drinks for the Chrome engineering and product managers and your problem will be solved.

Webmachinelearning sounds like a problem nobody has. Why would I want a standardized browser API for doing stuff that I can obviously already do without such an API?
