What's it like doing a PhD during these years of incredibly rapid AI development? I would imagine it must be hard keeping up with the pace of change, or even just feeling secure in your work not being obsolete/outdated before it's even published!

Yes! I knew there was another standard but I couldn't for the life of me remember the name.

Perhaps it's also just a matter of the Python crowd doing a bit more complicated stuff than the R crowd. For me the models tend to be quite straightforward RF or related models (like I said; tidymodels), but the demand is much more on the correct pipeline with pre- and postprocessing. Things become a bit less easy to store once you go into deep neural networks I'd imagine.
