Is TensorFlow ‘for Boomers’? PyTorch May Gain More Ground in Machine Translation

On Twitter, Josh Tobin, an instructor at University of California, Berkley and past research scientist at OpenAI, suggested a generational divide: “Why do people always ask what ML framework to use? It’s easy: Jax is for researchers; PyTorch is for engineers; TensorFlow is for boomers.”

Microprocessor engineering legend Jim Keller, himself a boomer, told Lex Fridman in a February 2021 podcastthat he knows many people who have switched from TensorFlow to PyTorch.

“The native language of people who write AI network programs is PyTorch now,” he said, noting how it is built to scale naturally.
