Well, I'm not making a sterotype -- I'm offering an explanation of the people i've met. It's very hard to converse with people whose academic background is discrete mathematics, in an essentially empirical domain (that of modelling intelligence).
There's a lot which is odd (and dubious) in AI/ML that traces is origins to this peculilar situation of a discipline (csci) in the "early phases" of modelling an empirical phenomenon, without yet, an intra-disciplinary theoretical support for it -- csci people take geometry and classical physics to make video games. They dont yet take the equivalent to make intelligent systems (which would include stuff on learning in animals, humans; and in my view, more applied math).
