The Value of a Transformer in MLflow

The transformers flavor in MLflow is a named like wrapper around a particular framework. A lot of these models come from very large research institutions where companies that have research arms within them, they can take a lot of time, effort, knowledge, and money to train for the first time. It's this great abstraction layer around doing stuff like inference instead of having to write raw PyTorch code or raw TensorFlow code or Keras code.
