Reply to [D] What are some applied domains where academic ML researchers are hoping to produce impressive results soon? by [deleted]
You typically won't get to know about impactful projects until they produce impressive results. Most research work is speculative, you won't get to know if it's going to work or the impact it has till experiments are completed, and researchers will not disclose results till they publish the work in some form.

This 10x, I wish the paper presentations and keynotes were made available online. It doesn't add much effort to record an audio + slides of the presentation.
Doesn't take anything away from the in person conference, which is more about networking and discussion.

This is great advice. First ask yourself why you want to do a PhD.
