PyTorch builds the future of AI and machine learning at Facebook
Facebook’s AI models perform trillions of inference operations every day for the billions of people that use our technologies. Meeting this growing workload demand means we have to continually evolve our AI frameworks. Which is why, we’re announcing that we’re migrating all our AI systems to PyTorch.

Chinese AI lab challenges Google, OpenAI with a model of 1.75 trillion parameters
In the race to build the underlying technologies that can power the next wave of AI revolution, a Chinese lab just toppled OpenAI, the venerated US-based research lab, in terms of who can train a gigantic deep learning model with the most training parameters--as for whether or not there is a race, at least ranking members of the lab believe so.

How to Simplify Django Migrations and Deployment
When removing fields from Django models, or adding non-nullable fields, it can be hard to avoid a mismatch between code running on some servers and the database in use.

This has been a challenge for a while now. Believe it or not, Django ticket #470 has been open since 2005!
