Yeah I’ve had conversations with people who shot down a long list of concerned experts, e.g.:
Stuart Russell is GOFAI ==> out-of-touch
Shane Legg doesn’t do DL, does he even do research? ==> out-of-touch
Ilya Sutskever (and everyone at OpenAI) is crazy, they think AGI is 5 years away ==> out-of-touch
Anyone at DeepMind is just marketing their B.S. “AGI” story or drank the koolaid ==> out-of-touch
But then, even the big 5 of deep learning have all said things that can be used to support the case....
So it kind of seems like there should be a compendium of quotes somewhere, or something.
Sounds like their problem isn’t just misleading heuristics, it’s motivated cognition.
Oh sure, in some special cases. I don’t this this experience was particularly representative.
