       | I am definitely going to give this a read. After decades of more
       | or less using GOFAI, the last eight years has mostly been machine
       | learning and deep learning. Lately I have been scratching an itch
       | to combine old fashioned symbolic AI with more modern deep
       | learning (hybrid systems). I started a new job on Monday where I
       | think this may happen.

       | From the table of contents, the four examples look appropriate
       | for looking at ML in the context of large real world problems.
