Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/2WdrUvI Spotify: https://bit.ly/2SqtadF We started Weights and Biases to build tools for Machine Learning practitioners because we care a lot about the impact that Machine Learning can have in the world and we love working in the trenches with the people building these models. One of the most fun things about these building tools has been the conversations with these ML practitioners and learning about the interesting things they’re working on. This process has been so fun that we wanted to open it up to the world in the form of our new podcast called Gradient Dissent. We hope you have as much fun listening to it as we had making it! 👩🏼‍🚀Weights and Biases: We’re always free for academics and open source projects.
