Abstract
I will discuss how DFT calculations are now used in just about every branch of the science of everyday matter, especially materials science and chemistry. I will also review the rapid rise of machine learning, and its impact on electronic structure calculations. I will end by discussing some efforts I have been involved with to use machine learning to make density functional approximations and some warnings about the future.
