[D] Are you excited about the upcoming Keras 3.0? (alien.top)

Creator of Keras confirmed that the new version comes out in a few days. Keras becomes multi-backend again with support for PyTorch, TensorFlow and JAX. Personally, I'm excited to be able to try JAX without having to deep dive into documentation and entire ecosystem. What about you?

Also, JAX is not official a google product, but rather a research product. So on paper, Tensorflow is google's official framework for deep learning.

What obligation does Google have to not deprecate tf? Google abandons projects all the time.

[–] Relevant-Yak-9657@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Actually, another perspective to put is that TensorFlow's deployment is something JAX doesn't have (not that I know of) and cutting it would be idiotic for google, since they eliminated their own tool in an ongoing AI revolution. TensorFlow is their current tool and if they are going to abandon it, they will need a strong replacement for it's deployability which does guarantee a few years (since the JAX team doesn't seem to be quite focused in deployment). IIRC JAX deploys by Tensorflow rn.

I would also like to hear about some programming frameworks (or languages) that Google has abandoned before.

Noop (Language)

AngularJS (Framework)

The latter was quite popular as a JavaScript web framework. There may be more examples, I'm not an expert at hating google.

But saying that it dropped Angularjs is like saying that google dropped tensorflow. They just rebooted it like tensorflow right? Thanks for Noop though. No idea that it existed lol.
