PyTorch Becomes Facebook's Default AI Framework

Last week, Facebook said it would migrate all its AI systems to PyTorch. Facebook's AI models currently perform trillions of inference operations every day for the billions of people that use its technology. Its AI tools and frameworks help fast track research work at Facebook, educational institutions and businesses globally. Big tech companies including Google (TensorFlow) and Microsoft (ML.NET), have been betting big on open-source machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) frameworks and libraries. Predominantly, Facebook has been using two distinct but synergistic frameworks for deep learning: PyTorch and Caffe2.
