This sounds like "edenics" (as in garden of Eden), which posits that there was original language (probably Hebrew) from which all languages descend. Other popular "original" languages are Tamil, Sanskrit, Basque, or whatever language some nationalist crackpot decides they want to promote. It's totally disconnected from reality. Here's a Language Log post on it: http://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog/archives/005278.h...

Seems more like they were "quietly threatening" because they realize "ok go" is such a generic term that following through is likely to fail.

Highly recommend quantizing the model (https://pytorch.org/tutorials/recipes/recipes/dynamic_quanti...). I converted the large model to use int8, and I'm able to run it 5x real-time on CPU with pretty low RAM requirements with still very good quality.

On ML teams, a comment like this would not get past code review because it's obvious – avoiding in-place operations in PyTorch is the standard.
