I have a Ph.D.; some people might call me a data scientist; and I work in a field where we occasionally consider using convolutional neural networks.
Machine learning has been around a long time, and there have only been the typical, incremental improvements. The only thing that's really changed in the past 10 years is that the hardware has gotten faster, allowing people to tackle slightly more complex problems.
What makes this such area so ripe for investment all of the sudden?
