I think I have read that statement by some other people. But the limit is kind of arbitrary. And of course, this limit will be higher and higher over time, that&amp;#x27;s why I put the year. I think the limit should also not be much lower. We already have language models three order of magnitude larger (&amp;gt;1T params), and we also call them &amp;quot;large&amp;quot;, so in this context, all those single-digit billion parameter models feel quite small. Similarly, when is a network &amp;quot;deep&amp;quot;? It used to mean more than 2 or 3 layers. And then there was a definition for &amp;quot;very deep&amp;quot;, starting with more than 10…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1404.7828/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

For the Schmidhuberian take on the broader history of deep learning, this other one&amp;#x27;s the go-to article (though it&amp;#x27;s much longer): https://arxiv.org/abs/1404.7828 Not everyone likes that article either, but it does at least extensively cite prior work, i.e. accounts for &amp;quot;how his contributions were (like everyone else&amp;#x27;s) evolutions of existing methods&amp;quot;. In particular, sections 5.1–5.4 credit a large amount of work from the 1960s-80s that he considers foundational.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1404.7828/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

For a history of the subject, see Section 5.1 of [2]. Note that some parts of [2] are rather controversial. For a historical account of back-progagation, which itself was &amp;#x27;invented&amp;#x27; many times, see [3, 4]. It is also not widely known that regular expressions, one of programmers&amp;#x27; favourite tools, were introduced by Kleene in [5]: he was interested in characterising the behaviour of McCulloch-Pitts &amp;quot;nerve nets&amp;quot; (early versions of neural nets)…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1404.7828/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

He wrote an enormous literature review of deep learning [0] basically because he felt that people weren&amp;#x27;t crediting ideas enough. This isn&amp;#x27;t a one-off essay, for him, he&amp;#x27;s been banging this drum for quite a while. Not saying he&amp;#x27;s wrong, just FYI.
