“I've done a few work projects in Keras/TensorFlow over the years and it created a lot of technical debt and lost time debugging it”

“Problem with TensorFlow is it is mostly not readable and onboarding new people to project is really hard.”

“Back when we were using TensorFlow, whenever we wanted to try something new... we would find ourselves wrestling with its machinery”

“we would find ourselves wrestling with its computational graph abstraction, which is non-intuitive, especially for models with more complex control flow.”

“if you are serious about getting into data science or AI I have to agree with the OP -- stick to TensorFlow.”

“At work, we have a bunch of vectorized computations that we run in Tensorflow, as it's a convenient way to get GPU-optimized code, so that is still an option (albeit an awkward one).”
