Do you have any evidence to support that? It would be fascinating if the field is primarly advancing due to a unique constellation of traits contributed by individuals who, in the past, may not have collaborated so effectively.
- vessenes 2y agoPURELY Anecdotal. But I'll say that as of 2024 1 in 36 US children are diagnosed on the spectrum according to the CDC(!), which would mean if you met 10 AI researchers and 4 were neurodivergent you'd reasonably expect that it's a higher-than-population average representation. I'm polling from the Effective Altruist AI folks in my mind, and the number is definitely, definitely higher than 4/10.

- vessenes 2y agoI love how this might mean "non-Effective", non-"Effective Altruist" or non-"Effective Altruist AI" folks. Yes
