Backprop kept producing wins. That bought it time. “Wait longer” is not a blank check. In 2026, with Meta-scale talent, data, and compute, serious ideas should show strong intermediate results, not just theory. Time is necessary, but it is not evidence. More compute does not replace insight, but it does speed up falsification. So no, skepticism is not naive. If a research program still cannot point to a clear empirical advantage after years, “it just needs more time” stops sounding like science and starts sounding like insulation from the scoreboard. |
