TensorFlow Dev Summit 2017 cont...

Matt and I had a long day listening to some of the latest breakthroughs in deep learning, specifically those related to TensorFlow.  Some standouts included a Stanford student that had created a neural net to detect skin cancer. Also liked Doug Eck's talk about artificial creativity. Jeff Dean had a cool keynote, and got to learn about TensorBoard from Dandelion Mane.  One of my favorite parts of the summit was getting shout outs and later talking to both Jeff Dean and Doug Eck.  The shoutouts to cloudpainter during Jeff's Keynote and Eck Session and lots of pics can be seen below. This is mostly for my memories.

Jeff Dean, Rajat Monga, and Megan Kacholia delivered the keynote address at the inaugural TensorFlow Dev Summit. They discuss: - The origins of TensorFlow - Progress since TensorFlow's open-source launch - TensorFlow's thriving open-source community - TensorFlow performance and scalability - TensorFlow applications around the world ... and share some exciting announcements!

Using TensorFlow for Music and Art Generation - that's what Magenta is all about. Join Douglas Eck discusses art and music generation with deep nets and reinforcement learning. He also talks about how artists and musicians fit in to the effort. Be prepared to see and hear inspired ML models.
