Having built models, I’d claim that it’s art based upon science, perhaps not too different than engineering a building. At every stage there are decisions to be made with tradeoffs. Over time, the resulting model could be invalidated or perhaps perform better. It’s remarkably difficult to approach or even define a “best” model. What’s most peculiar to me is that somehow AI is becoming more distinct from math or stats and that there’s a notion by running pytorch one is able to play god and create sentience.
