Honest question: what are the best strategies you've seen for filtering through the noise? And how can we make deep learning research more actionable / understandable to people without academic backgrounds? (Ex: http://worrydream.com/ScientificCommunicationAsSequentialArt/ …)
I don't know. Good communication is extremely time-consuming, so it will always be just a small fraction of everything that's said about deep learning. And there are always actors with a vested interest in creating more hype. It's not an easy problem...

on good communication being time-consuming. If you've any recommendations on this, too, would love to hear 'em. 
Also: thanks for working hard to make the deep learning world more accessible! Have lost count at the # of people who have mentioned they love your books.

That could be a filter. If someone is pumping out a ton of DL content, it’s a sign of content marketing with shallow understanding. One cannot simply write blogpost after blogpost with insights without spending much time silently working.

Can think of one example of this (extremely popular YouTuber, so mostly focused on video content rather than blogposts), and completely agree.
