I always think glimpses of the custom tools used in game dev are really cool. I work in large scale ML systems and I wish there was similar effort put into tools for observability and debugging of neural networks.

I'd be tempted to work on game dev tooling one day if there were more remote work opportunities.

So do it. Then show it to your team and boss then boss's boss.

Isn't that https://wandb.ai/ ?

I like wandb but really it's just an aggregated metrics platform and it's cloud based design limits what's possible due to bandwidth constraints.

I like this tool from Nvidia [1] for exploring CNN feature maps. That's more in line with what I'm talking about but it's is an offline tool. I am imagining tools that provide this granularity of information about networks in real-time during training.

How is WanDB different from postgres?
