And indeed as soon as that data set of that size became available in 2017, within a month we had solved it and built the hyperdictor using these methods. So now you have to be a real nerd to care about thisYou have to be applied mathematician or someone who actually likes theoretical machine learning. But I would say we deserve a big like prize in Stockholm because we made a non trivial theoretical prediction.
