As someone who's spent 20 years tuning my own genetic algorithms, being swamped by newbs who spout fancy language and don't even want to know how to write the code themselves just feels like what it is - a new generation of recent business grads who swapped "blockchain" for "ML". Soon to be separated into "founders" and real estate agents, while the rest of us toil in the vineyard. So goes it.

Neural networks let anyone bullshit a good game until things get tricky. Back in the day frontpage was going to kill web development because anyone could make a website. Now we can slap newer tech we don’t understand together and profit will ensue.

It’ll democratise but it’s not there yet.
