Thanks for posting, it was a great read. I especially enjoy the segments where he upfrontly addresses "an indictment of academic science" and "an indictment of pharma". He pulls no punches in saying how embarrassing it is for pharma and academia to be literally outclassed by DeepMind. A great quote: "If you think I’m being overly dramatic, consider this counterfactual scenario. Take a problem proximal to tech companies’ bottom line, e.g. image recognition or speech, and imagine that no tech company was investing research money into the problem. (IBM alone has been working on speech for decades.) Then imagine that a pharmaceutical company suddenly enters ImageNet and blows the competition out of the water, leaving the academics scratching their heads at what just happened and the tech companies almost unaware it even happened."
