Career-problems Memes

The eternal struggle of being a machine learning engineer at a party. Someone asks what you do, you say "I work with models," and suddenly they're picturing you hanging out with Instagram influencers while you're actually debugging why your neural network thinks every image is a cat. The glamorous life of tuning hyperparameters and staring at loss curves doesn't quite translate to cocktail conversation. Try explaining that your "models" are mathematical representations with input layers, hidden layers, and activation functions. Watch their eyes glaze over faster than a poorly optimized gradient descent. Pro tip: Just let them believe you're doing something cool. It's easier than explaining backpropagation for the hundredth time.
