The most important thing this project provides appears to be the .onnx file format, which represents ANN models, pre-trained or not.

Deep learning frameworks can then output such .onnx files for interchangeability and serialization.

Some examples:

The cool thing is that ONNX can then run inference in an uniform manner on a variety of devices without installing the deep learning framework used for. It's a bit like having a kind of portable executable. Neat.

There is also a time-energy uncertainty principle, because those two operators are also complementary.

Ciro Santilli thinks imperative programming is just a superset of functional programming where you can have state.

Python: OMG, please, just make it work!!! Your are interpreted!!! You are a hot web technology!!! Node.js and Ruby are doing just fine, and Ruby is not newer than you!!! See also: pip.
