Reproduced below is the introductory passage from a psycholinguistics paper, published in the mid-nineties. Riveted, as I’m sure you are, having just read that banger opening line to my blog post, humour me and read on; I promise it gets interesting.
Or simply…

It’s something of an industry standard at this point, well-regarded for the extensive (and extensible) functionality of its interactive dashboard; for advanced features like checkpointing model weights in the cloud and automating hyperparameter sweeps; and for integrating painlessly with frameworks like PyTorch and PyTorch Lightning. It simplifies your life as an ML researcher enormously by making it easy to track and compare experiments, monitor system resource usage, all while giving you very fun interactive graphs to play with.
Plot arbitrary quantities you may be logging against each other, interactively, on the fly, however you like. In Dark Mode, of course (you’re a professional, after all). Here’s a less artistic impression to give you an idea, should you have been living under a rock:
