Thanks for saying that. I wonder why nature feels that scientists around the world need to read pure fluff which presents speculation as fact. Maybe because they want to bias scientists for or against someone? Science still needs to be blin

Freezing EPA funds is not mentioned in the article. The rest is media talk, but not science. Trump is not a scientist. Still looking for the facts in this article...

Strange how the article doesn't mention that (not Hinton), Hopfield, Sejnowski, Kohonen , Amari etc. etc. were all phycisists. Also, physicists working for software is not only a silicon-valley phenomenon .
