Nothing in “deep learning” is new. Impressive hype machine—like backprop in 80s. 80s results collapsed. This time?https://twitter.com/lukeprog/status/630784807182557185 …

The 80s backprop claims seemed much too good to be true. I replicated key experiments around 1990, found they were nonsense. Rinse & repeat?
