Tensorflow and Deep Learning, Without a PhD, Martin Gorner, Google [video]
Although TensorFlow&#x2F;Keras allows anyone to implement Deep Learning easily, that doesn&#x27;t mean that they will get <i>hired</i> for a relevant job position without a PhD. Most Deep Learning jobs, and even relatively mundane Data Scientist jobs nowadays, want a PhD from my experience. There is a surplus of Statistics&#x2F;CS PhDs, why would a company hire someone without one if they do not have to?<p>Without a relevant job position, knowing how to implement Deep Learning is a buzzword trick for Medium thought pieces or getting $$ in funding from venture capitalists for a generic &quot;AI&quot; startup that no one actually understands how it works.
