An opinion piece which I hope does the HTM Community justice 🙂

Thanks Matt, also I borrowed your quote about the upcoming AI With The Best Conference hosting biologically oriented research speakers in tandem with the appearance of classic ML Pundits. I hope you didn’t mind? I would have credited you with the quote, except in the space of what I was saying it didn’t really fit and there’s no space for footnotes and stuff. But anyway yeah that’s a great quote!
