He's a founder of an ML startup with published papers.

So hes a masochist or?

Seems to hate ML.

[acdha]

Reading his post, I don’t see anything suggesting that he hates ML as opposed to companies over-promising what the technology is capable of.

[streetcat1]

He hates ML as a pattern recognizer (I.e. have no real understanding of the world).

He does not hate symbolic ML which is based on logic/knowledge (and do understand the world).

Nah, he just applies his ordinary Slavic pessimism and cynicism to it.
