Comment on A new link to an old model could crack the mystery of deep learning

I'd recommend anyone interested in the NTK and its limitations to check out Greg Yang's work [1] and the recent book by Roberts, Yaida, and Hanin [2]. There's clearly a lot more work to be done on neural network scaling limits; the NTK is overly simplistic (though useful).

Agreed, Greg Yang's work is really interesting.

Here's a reddit thread by Yang discussing his research into why NNs are not Kernel Machines [1].
