The future of TensorFlow


In this section, we will observe how TensorFlow is changing, who is starting to use TensorFlow, and how you can make an impact contributing to it.

Since it was released in late 2015, TensorFlow has already seen several more releases:

TensorFlow is constantly being updated. Although it isn't an official Google product, it is also open source and hosted on GitHub. At the time of writing, TensorFlow is at release 1.2. The most recent release added distributed computing capabilities. These are beyond the scope of this book, but generally speaking, they allow computation across multiple GPUs on multiple machines for maximum parallelization. Under heavy development, more features are always just around the corner. TensorFlow is becoming more popular every day.

Several software companies have released machine learning frameworks recently, but TensorFlow stands out in adoption. Internally, Google is practicing what they preach. Their acclaimed DeepMind team has switched to...
