I'm not being gatekeeper here. John Carmack came into AI around 2021 iirc and came in Lex Friedman and said he's going to bring about AGI. It's okay for him to try so but he had no particular expertise in the field. He's a brilliant guy and I'm not gonna say he's not going to succeed, or that his opinion is worthless. But people seeemed to think that the whole field is a farce just waiting for an adult to come in and fix it. I find that biased. By the way this is how people end up worshipping figures like Musk. There's a limit to transfer function of human expertise, ironically to the discussion at hand.

That's just what I think anyway.
