So? That means nothing as to the quality or even topic of their blog content. Unless blogs started receiving peer review while I wasn't paying attention, there's likely a reason any given content lives there and not in an academi

Wait, so you deny the fact that Hinton and Bengio have worked on AI their entire careers?

Such is the US's reward for building out the nascent infrastructure of the early Internet. Also, this is a US centric site run by a US based company. The "American" part is implied unless explicitly stated otherwise.

So in other words, people who've spent their entire lives thinking and talking about AI praise other people who also have spent their entire lives thinking and talking about AI. This is a bubble conversation that makes no sense to peop

"Safety issues" are to him more like, "the AI will kill everyone to fill its objectives" and less like, "deepfakes are concerning." Though I'm sure he hopped on the "deepfakes are bad" bandwagon

You're pitching this as truth when in reality it's just one viewpoint. Simon is not "wrong" any more than you are "wrong". You're just arguing from different perspectives.

You don't, nor would you want to in this case. Some amount of waste, fraud and abuse must be tolerated in any system.

Everyone knows about the replication crisis, and everyone knows the flaws in the incentive structures around publishing research, but none of that is what you referenced. What we need are people with level heads making calm decisions, not b

What makes you think there are tweaks that would improve "this"? You might be startled to learn "this" (the scientific method) is the best possible way of discovery that humans know of.

Now imagine making a chart that adds a 100x multiplier to that rocket's data! Only that chart now can be called "skyrocketing" then, because it dwarfs the rocket's original data... The fact that more "skyrocketin

Exponential growth, several orders of magnitude... these are not what "skyrocketing" means, in actuality. So you are correct, none of those phrases describe the graph here, but none of those phrases matter. It's a sudden, al

A lot of the studies involved do replicate, just with reduced effects. But the presumption here is that the same experiment is even being run a second time, and my point is that many studies who have the stated goal of replication do so i

I just want you to understand that you're coming across as if you want people not to discuss most things in their lives, because as you say, we're hardly experts on most things. Being wrong is completely okay, and trying to police
