    Click bait title :/ I thought it's a machine learning article

      What about the title implied that?

        "Attention is all you need" is a famous ML paper. Though given the content of the article I don't think the author was intentionally referencing that.

          We could call doing such a thing, referencing a seminal work with a similar title that's so close that you couldn't to it that have missed it, yet somehow you did, as an AliceGG's Mistake.

          How could you write 600 words on the topic and not mention the paper otherwise?

            For the same reason that you could tell a joke without feeling the need to explain it.
