Vanishing in Humans vs AI
Vanishing online isn't the same as vanishing in AI.
The former is about the absence of signal, nothing remains for a system or a person to process, so no learning occurs.
The latter is about the attenuation of a signal, as the signal moves through the network, it shrinks to the point where it can no longer teach the model effectively, causing ineffective learning.
Put simply:
The first emphasizes moving on with no signal at all. The second emphasizes a signal moving through layers and becoming too weak to matter.
