Not true. ConvNets were actually relatively cheap compared to the dominant models of object recognition circa 2007.
They were much smaller than current architectures, of course.

I agree. I also wonder how it will deal with movements like sitting down, lying down, running – I imagine it only works well with static scenery.

ConvNets Early Debates: Computer Vision Community’s Intellectual Journey
By
–
Haha!
It wasn't quite like that.
Many senior members of the CV community were actually very friendly and curious about ConvNets (if skeptical).
There was a true intellectual debate.
Everyone had to have a "theory" of how vision worked.
For me, it was end-to-end gradient-based -

RAG relevance for questions using many distant document elements
By
–
RAG can handle all sorts of different questions, it's really appropriate for extracting information from a document. An interesting question is "when the question requires using more many distant elements from doc, is RAG still relevant?"

RAG system reduces token input from 128k to 2k
By
–
Exactly!
To complement on the end: thanks to the RAG system, the model was fed around 2k tokens each time, down from the 128k tokens of the original document. -
