Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Since the model could be trained in just a couple of hours and deploying it took only a few minutes, the entire process took less than an hour.""A range of a a wide range of algorithms, EIM voice mails, which can be plugged in right away into your solution into into into our solution, and then have platform that provides know, to to come up with an operational solution really quick.""The initial setup is very straightforward.""The solution is able to read 90% of the documents correctly with a 10% error rate.""I think the user interface is quite handy, and it is easy to use as compared to the other cloud platforms.""On GCP, we are exposing our API services to our clients so that they send us their information. It can be single individual records or it can be a batch of their clients.""Some of the valuable features are the vast amount of services that are available, such as load balancer, and the AI architecture."

"yTorch is gaining credibility in the research space, it's becoming easier to find examples of papers that use PyTorch. This is an advantage for someone who uses PyTorch primarily.""The tool is very user-friendly.""I like that PyTorch actually follows the pythonic way, and I feel that it's quite easy. It's easy to find compared to others who require us to type a long paragraph of code.""It's been pretty scalable in terms of using multiple GPUs.""Its interface is the most valuable. The ability to have an interface to train machine learning models and construct them with the high-level interface, without excess busting and reconstructing the same technical elements, is very useful.""The framework of the solution is valuable."

Cons
"Customizations are very difficult, and they take time.""I think it's the it it also has has evolved quite a bit over the last few years, and Google Cloud folks have been getting, more and more services. But I think from a improvement standpoint, so maybe they can look at adding more algorithms, so adding more AI algorithms to their suite.""It could be more clear, and sometimes there are errors that I don't quite understand.""The solution can be improved by simplifying the process to make your own models.""One thing that I found is that Azure ML does not directly provide you with features on Google Cloud AI Platform, whereas Vertex provides some features of the platform.""The initial setup was straightforward for me but could be difficult for others.""At first, there were only the user-managed rules to identify the best attributes of the individual. Then, we came up with a truth set and developed different machine learning models with the help of that truth set, so now it's completely machine learning."

"There is not enough documentation about some methods and parameters. It is sometimes difficult to find information.""PyTorch could make certain things more obvious. Even though it does make things like defining loss functions and calculating gradients in backward propagation clear, these concepts may confuse beginners. We find that it's kind of problematic. Despite having methods called on loss functions during backward passes, the oral documentation for beginners is quite complex.""I would like a model to be available. I think Google recently released a new version of EfficientNet. It's a really good classifier, and a PyTorch implementation would be nice.""On the production side of things, having more frameworks would be helpful.""I've had issues with stability when I use a lot of data and try out different combinations of modeling techniques.""The training of the models could be faster."

    Overview

    Google AI Platform is a managed service that enables you to easily build machine learning models, that work on any type of data, of any size. Create your model with the powerful TensorFlow framework that powers many Google products, from Google Photos to Google Cloud Speech.

    We've built this course as an introduction to deep learning. Deep learning is a field of machine learning utilizing massive neural networks, massive datasets, and accelerated computing on GPUs. Many of the advancements we've seen in AI recently are due to the power of deep learning. This revolution is impacting a wide range of industries already with applications such as personal voice assistants, medical imaging, automated vehicles, video game AI, and more.

    In this course, we'll be covering the concepts behind deep learning and how to build deep learning models using PyTorch. We've included a lot of hands-on exercises so by the end of the course, you'll be defining and training your own state-of-the-art deep learning models.
