In short, my wife got sick and needed brain surgery while she was pregnant, and I ended up being away from Enlitic for nearly a year. It made me reassess what I really wanted to do with my time.
Now that I spend all my time coding and teaching, I'm much happier. And I think that making deep learning more accessible for all will be more impactful than working with just one company. Deep learning has been ridiculously exclusive up until now, on the whole, and very few people are researching in the areas that I think matter the most.
Finally, I think I achieved what I set out to do with Enlitic - deep learning for medicine is now recognized as having great potential and lots of folks are working on it.
