One of them I recently got reminded of is the incremental delay - the delay that knows no definitive end, only a point in time where it is decided if the thing that is supposed to happen must be further delayed (again). Two or three iterations of this and you begin to grow indifferent to that thing, you don’t really care anymore if it will happen or not, and you only crave one thing: a final decision. Even if it was really good news or something that benefits me a lot like a promotion - after some delays, I just want it to end.

Everything constantly evolves, from algorithms, architectures, datasets, benchmarks, to companies, competition or regulation, and the lists could go on for much longer. It is even worse if you’re in research as you constantly need to watch out for parallel advancements that might cost you a publication. I only got a small dosage of that dynamic during my Master’s thesis, which ultimately resulted in my decision not to pursue a PhD program for the time being, even though I love doing research.

My name is Moritz, I am a recently graduated Machine Learning Engineer from Germany and this is the site I want to use to share experiences, opinions, and information with the world. I am most interested in Computer Vision, NLP, and generative AI of all modalities - both for real world use cases solving actual problems, and also just for fun.</p> <p>While I sure wish that this could be useful for some, it is more of a writing exercise for myself. In the times of social media monopolies and SEO-optimized AI slop, I do not expect many people to stumble across my articles.</p>
