Hey @all if I am just starting off in machine learning what should I learn first Tensorflow or PyTorch or other?? Also once Im more experienced where do I go from there?

I think either is probably fine to learn. Both have roughly the same set of features at this point. TF used to be the pre-dominant framework, but PyTorch has gained popularity over the past few years. Now if it'll stay that way or there will be a new trend in the future, no one can say for sure.

Hey thanks Matthew! Do you know why PyTorch has gained popularity?? Is it just the hot new thing or is there actual features and aspects that are dramatically better

Having started with TF and moved to torch myself, torch was just easier to work with when doing something a bit out of the ordinary. Since then it has gained in popularity and with popularity comes lots of walkthroughs, documentation, videos guides and research papers with github repos.

Definitely start with torch. It works all the way up, just start building more complex things.
