I just finished training a neural network to play a trick taking card game and just the neural network is 4,250 times the size of the ROM for Video Chess and the executable including the UI is even bigger.

True story: One time I was at a party and my parents introduced me to some friends of theirs and they said their son worked on graphics drivers. I said I couldn't handle low-level work like that. My parents glared at me and told me I was being rude. Once I figured out the disconnect I explained that low-level means closer to the CPU and it's much more complicated - not that it's less desirable work.
