Facebook may be willing to foot the bill. On Tuesday, Facebook and Udacity announced the PyTorch Scholarship Challenge, offering students the opportunity to learn how to build, train, and deploy deep learning models. PyTorch is an open source deep learning framework that is growing in popularity among AI researchers due to its ease of use, clean Pythonic API, and flexibility, Stuart Frye, Udacity's vice president of partnerships, wrote in a Tuesday blog post. With PyTorch 1.0, now available in preview release, developers can more easily move from exploration to product development with a single unified framework, Frye wrote. The scholarship program will offer students the chance to learn in-demand deep learning skills with PyTorch, as well as earn a full scholarship to Udacity's Deep Learning Nanodegree program, according to the post.
