Celebrate 10 years of Keras! 🎉 In this special anniversary interview, Developer Advocate Yufeng Guo sits down with Keras founder François Chollet and engineer Matt Watson to discuss the library's incredible decade-long journey.
From its humble beginnings as a solo project built on Theano to becoming the industry standard for deep learning, we dive into the history, the challenges, and the pivotal moments that shaped Keras. Discover the origin of the name "Keras," the philosophy behind its user-centric design, and how the community has been the driving force behind its success.
We also look ahead to the future of AI, discussing the rise of large language models (LLMs), the importance of pre-trained models, and how Keras 3.0 is adapting to a multi-backend world with support for JAX, TensorFlow, and PyTorch. Whether you're a seasoned ML engineer or just starting your journey, this conversation is packed with insights and advice.
In this video, we cover:
* The origin story of Keras and its Greek mythology inspiration 🏛️
* The evolution from Theano to TensorFlow and back to multi-backend support 🔄
* The philosophy of "progressive disclosure of complexity" 🧠
* The rise of Kaggle and pre-trained models 🏆
* François and Matt's advice for learning machine learning today 🎓
