Podcast: TensorFlow for HPC?

In this podcast, Peter Braam looks at how TensorFlow framework could be used to accelerate high performance computing. "Google has developed TensorFlow, a truly complete platform for ML. The performance of the platform is amazing, and it begs the question if it will be useful for HPC in a similar manner that GPU’s heralded a revolution."
