We should stop calling it YOLO after the creator quit machine learning.

Especially hilarious considering some other people ALSO jumped on the "we made an object detector so let's call it YOLOvX" wagon and released...

Something called YOLOv7.

Looking forward to the cat detector in YOLOv9.
Why? For me at this point YOLO means a family of detectors that in a single pass propose a bounding box per pixel and filters them with some clustering algorithm. When I see YOLOfoo I know what kind of architecture to expect. A more descriptive name like YOLO-tricks instead of YOLOvX would be nice though.
