Just a reminder for folks out there that you can do meaningful, impactful, and (yes) well-paid work in ML without needing a PhD, let alone the doorstop CVs full of top-tier conference papers that ML grads from the prestigious programs all seem to have these days.
Domain expertise, knowing the non-ML state of the art, knowing what problems to solve, and knowing what counts as a good-enough solution are all *much* more valuable than ICML publications. Don't let people tell you otherwise.
Leave Twitter just because it keeps failing at random in completely unpredictable ways, the decision-making process is utterly opaque resisting any rational explanation, and it's occasionally deeply racist for no obvious reason?
My dude, I work in machine learning.
