If you already went through the tough work of publishing twice at peer-reviewed venues, and really just after a PhD rather than the process, have you thought of going for a thesis-only PhD, rather than spend years working for a PI? Some places offer thesehttps://www.titech.ac.jp/english/enrolled/procedures/doctoral/flow.html …

How feasible it is to do a thesis-only Doctorate these days? I haven’t read much into it—only know that Einstein got his doctorate from a thesis submission. On Einstein's Doctoral Thesis: https://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0504201 …pic.twitter.com/gHg3gVDcJ8

Is it worth doing a PhD in ML? I suppose you could ask "Is it worth doing X?" about anything in particular. But in ML, it seems like you don't need anyone's permission. It seems like if you want to make a contribution, you can simply contribute. No one's standing in the way.

Doing research is a full time job. Kind of difficult if you have already a full time job. So time itself stands in the way. If you get paid to do research its orders of magnitude easier.

I was also told I would not get into any top Robotics PhD program because I had 0 publications and my background was too strange (chemical engr BS, internships at startups/McKinsey). But
@leto__jean took a chance on me and two of my (first) papers won awards this yr. -
We should be judging candidates based on *potential* not on traditional achievements. Otherwise we are missing out on talents who might bring something new to the table.

This is a problem of north-american top universities. The European landscape is very different: most people recruited for a PhD in
#ML, including in top institutions, have no prior publications. Other ways to show competence are considered, like cool projects made in the garage. -
I have mails and talked to professor from Europe who say they now require publications due to the high number of applications they receive. My impression is that it is a larger issue in North America but definitely present in Europe too.

I find it quite shocking that Profs ask him to publish 2 publications already without even starting the PhD program. What’s his purpose then in the PhD program? Sleeping? Lol
