It's interesting that you mention this, because there's quite an impressive resurgence of privately funded R&D going on in the ML space. We're in an interesting phase, where the field is moving too fast to have 'cano

The need for talented developers has vastly outpaced the supply. The bar has to be lowered to include a wider pool of people. There is currently no other solution for businesses. The unfortunate side effect is that capable developers aren’t
