This might be the first time after 10 years that boosted trees are not the best default choice when working with data in tables. Instead a pre-trained neural network is, the new TabPFN, as we just published in Nature 🎉

Something I've observed in academia but I suspect is true in industry as well: as you become more senior, you'll find that you can be much more productive if you spend all your time being a manager and letting junior people do all the real work. But after a few years of this,

Expert's Dilemma: the more specialized you become, the less open you are to creative solutions from other fields. But the more you explore other fields, the more you risk losing credibility in your home field. Interdisciplinary work is still not really embraced by academia.
