@AskCiti How do you create a new online account for a new checking account that was created because there was fraud on the old one? It can’t be done via the app. The branch sent me to support. Support takes an hour to tell me nothing.

If you disappear for 6 months and do these things you will be unrecognizable - pick up some kind of accent - wear an eyepatch - practice walking with a limp - mess up your face somehow. I don’t know, squint a lot? When you return, go to a town where they never heard of you

Any guesses on the generic term the industry will ultimately settle on? NeuMo, NNP, AIPU, AISIC, Aiccellerator, MLPU, AIGPU? Full disclosure, I made some of these up.

Reading Jeff Dean's #NIPS2017 slides, it's hard not to believe that specialized chips will replace GPUs for Deep learning, same as Bitcoin learningsys.org/nips17/assets/…
