researchers are like Francois Chollet & many more even jeff dean and it is the greatness of the community that it's pretty open to optimization "Why do researchers love PyTorch? Simplicity. It’s similar to numpy, very pythonic, and integrates easily with the rest of the Python ecosystem. For example, you can simply throw in a pdb breakpoint anywhere into your PyTorch model and it’ll work. In TensorFlow, debugging the model requires an active session and ends up being much trickier. Great API. Most researchers prefer PyTorch’s API to TensorFlow’s API. This is partially because PyTorch is better designed and partially because TensorFlow has handicapped itself by switching APIs so many times (e.g. ‘layers’ -> ‘slim’ -> ‘estimators’ -> ‘tf.keras’). Performance. Despite the fact that PyTorch’s dynamic graphs give strictly less opportunity for optimization, there have been many anecdotal reports that PyTorch is as fast if not faster than TensorFlow. It's not clear if this is really true, but at the very least, TensorFlow hasn't gained a decisive advantage in this area."

common people do want to appreciate & adopt the things that seems fit to the knowledge sphere at present from the researchers. tensorflow approaches are better and respected each and everyone of the community as well in exchange enlightened us new ways of understanding of ml solutions. it have turned into a family “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” and given the assets alphabet have a common man can turn into researchers! e.g. >> https://learn.grasshopper.app take this for example "Learn to code anywhere. Grasshopper is available on iOS, Android, and all web browsers. Your progress syncs seamlessly between devices." << this is the status quo ! it's a gift of a lifetime for generations !
