> All the groundbreaking papers in deep learning in the last decade had code published. So if you're aiming for thousands of citations, you need code.

I am in this field and I would say less than 10% of the top papers have code published by the author, and those are most of the time another 0.1% improvement in imagenet. All the libraries that you generally use are likely to be recreated by others in this field. Lot of most interesting work's code never come out like alphazero/muzero, GPT-3 etc.
