I detected videos of Siraj Raval to learn deep learning. That make me doubt of the teaching quality of the site.

Can you elaborate? (I have no idea who he is)
He plagiarized a lot of stuff, and eventually confessed about a year ago. It was a lot of flash/pizazz, with not as much substance as you really needed to learn something.

I haven't checked in on him since... maybe he's doing better at teaching now?

The videos that I found are the old ones. I didn't watch any of the new ones.
