On: Opus 1.5 released: Opus gets a machine learning upgrade

Not that strange when you consider what “opus” means- product of work, with the connotation of being large and artistically important. It’s Latin, so it’s friendly phonemes to speakers of Romance languages and very scientific-and-important-sounding to English speaking ears. Basically the most generic name you can give your fine “work” in the western world.

Thanks for the definition. I like the word! I just haven't come across it in a long time, and seeing it twice on HN frontpage is bizarre!

It's funny, I was expecting the article to be about the Opus music font and was trying to figure out how ML could be involved.
