I know them and am a founder of a vc funded ai startup. Nobody is deploying naive bayes algorithms

Exactly my point. You are so into user perspective that you think you are arguing against me.
Yes, they’re not deploying them. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t still help to know the fundamentals of the field, especially when you’re trying to innovate.
Yeah. But you didn’t build a plane without knowing physics right?
Nobody deploys a textbook algorithm because everyone knows textbooks algorithms and there are no advantages. So, no, there is real value in learning the fundamentals, dear founder.
So you really did not learn them.
There is nothing wrong with being user. You don't have to know how compilers work to use compiler. But then you should not say you understand compilers.
In the same way, you probably would benefit from a book "Using deep learning", not "Understanding deep learning".
