This made me lol. The comic is seriously a great intro learning resource; it didn't occur to me the subtext might be "don't attempt ML if you're not at Google".
The phrase "we need to add AI to everything" should be met with as much consternation as "we need to promote synergy". Precision is important. It's the difference between spending 6 months developing an deploying trained neural nets and 60 minutes for linear regression.
No, it isn't. It's horrible. It read like advertising copy to sway dumb investors into pouring their life savings into Google stock.
