What's science fiction about doing auto-machine learning? It's basically automation of a lot of the tasks that data scientists do manually to build simple ML models.

That is definitely a technically challenging problem but not an impossible one.

If anything AWS is late to this.

Right, AutoML != AGI.

In case your comment is about the frequency of announcements rather than the subject I just wanted to mention AWS is having their main yearly conference this week so they will be announcing many new services and features.

This is not new technology. Th is is AWS catching up to the competitors. There's Google AutoML, AutoKeras, Azure Automated ML, IBM AutoAI, H20, and others...

Do any of those services reliably give useful results?
