@plexus yeah the boosters always cherry-pick the most emotional, irrational-sounding arguments they can find. All this time before this craze, I felt like development had shed so many of its old problems, where all the major programming languages, frameworks and even many IDEs are open source. The having people try to drag us back into the dark old world of expensive tools, subscriptions and vendor lock-in. I’m fine with neural nets as such! I’ve worked with them for over a decade.
