lately Gary's been ranting non-stop about US elections and how evil Trump and his supporters were and why Kamala Harris is a better candidate.

I'm like wth does this have to do with AI? If anything having such political bias throws shade into his views about AI and cannot be trusted.

I mean he's free to hold whatever political opinions. But yeah... he is a contrarian hater usually childish and I hate the sensationalist manner he uses to present things, everything is insanely important and we must act *NOW* and all that. Ever since he was apart that hearing at congress I now view every Gary Marcus tweet through the lens of him desperately wanting to become part of some transnational ai oversight organisation. I just hope he doesn't get any power

the common thread is rationality and an aversion to disinformation.

It seems like you mainly switched to anti-neural-network punditry. Have you thought about trying to go back to research or is that not viable for you anymore?
