For neural networks, yeah continuous learning is basically dead.

But for other ML approaches, it works really well. KNN is one example that works particularly well.

Ehhh KNN doesn’t have a training phase, so it’s really more that the concept of continual learning doesn’t apply. You have to store your entire dataset and recalculate everything from scratch every time anyway.
