Yes, I think Fei Fei Li&amp;#x27;s datasets are much better tests than MNIST if that is what you were getting at? I don&amp;#x27;t see any of these people submitting MNIST to NIPS in 2017 None of them submitted things as entirely new and different as this, either. Having said that, I think my point holds. The completely awesome 2017 &amp;quot;Generalization in Deep Learning&amp;quot; paper[1] was co-authored by Bengio and uses MNIST - because everyone can follow it. Yann LeCun was co-author on the 2017 &amp;quot;Adversarially Regularized Autoencoders for Generating Discrete…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1706.04964/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
