Exploring the Next Generation of Deep Learning

Highlights from the #DevToolsChat Twitter Chat

In a follow-up to one of the year’s most popular Code Together podcasts, Igniting the Next Generation of Deep Learning, Intel and Google hosted the first #DevToolsChat, which expanded on the topics explored in this earlier podcast. Special guests included team members from Google TensorFlow, TensorFlow MLIR, Google Health (DeepVariant), Google Cloud (Deep Learning VM), Intel AI and Intel Labs. Nearly 35 people participated. Check out the highlights below — and stay tuned at @IntelDevTools for our next #DevToolsChat!
