I recently started a new newsletter focus on AI education. TheSequence is a no-BS( meaning no hype, no news etc) AI-focused newsletter that takes 5 minutes to read. The goal is to keep you up to date with machine learning projects, research papers and concepts. Please give it a try by subscribing below:

When we think about training or learning processes in deep learning solution we typically visualize centralized models. In those architectures a series of central nodes collect and curate datasets which are used to train the models that are deployed across different nodes in a network. Even in distributed scenarios such as multi-agent reinforcement learning(MARL) that can include tens of thousands of nodes running a model the learning models rely on a handful of centralized nodes.
