Why do people assume that scientists don’t sanity check themselves? Genuine question, no offense to the OC here.
"guys, I know we've been working on this for decades, but I've been going over this first-year textbook, and I have some bad news..."
Cause maybe they assume scientists are hyping things up like VCs for AI.
In a dishonest world, the honest would be mistrusted more.
