Is studying evolutionary algorithms useful? Or are they a meme for optimization and complex problem solving?

I have never used or even seen evolutionary algorithms being used in industry. Take that for what it's worth. It seems that other methods won the ML meme wars.

Just another optimization method. Used sometimes

They're used to optimize potential parameter sets in computational chemistry. More expensive than GD/SGD methods; but they can locate global minima rather than local ones. Main reason for SGD being so prevalent in ML is because its dirt cheap.

the more syllables it has the more likely it's a meme
