Facebook and Microsoft introduce ecosystem for interchangeable AI frameworks

Actually, Tensorflow is huge in the data science community, but PyTorch is taking over ML research. TF is last year's cool thing. That's one reason why fast.ai just adopted Pytorch for their courses. Tensorflow is surprisingly low-level and needs libraries like Keras to be used easily. The field of Python ML tools moves fast...

I hope the ML community won't have to suffer the same kind of fatigue syndrom that has plagued the javascript community for the last decade.

Excuse the newbie question but are PyTorch and/or TensorFlow sufficient for developing ML algorithms that can be used directly by a user-facing application? Or is there typically some translation layer involved?
