Specialists describe deep learning as akin to a rocketship that needs a really big engine (a model) and a lot of fuel (the data) in order to go anywhere interesting. To get a better understanding of the issues involved in building compute systems for deep learning, I spoke with one of the foremost experts on this subject: Greg Diamos, senior researcher at Baidu. Diamos has long worked to combine advances in software and hardware to make computers run faster. In recent years, he has focused on scaling deep learning to help advance the state-of-the-art in areas like speech recognition.
