Neural nets and dataflow matrix machines

What we see is an explosive growth in the capabilities of various deep and/or recurrent neural nets. The latest AlphaGo triumph underscores that...

A couple of particularly notable URLs:

It is interesting that dataflow matrix machines are a rather powerful generalization of recurrent neural nets.
