Gary Marcus on Twitter: "Hey @AndrewYang, if you are serious about talking about robots and automation, my book https://t.co/C6XodPts1W is #1 in that topic on Amazon, and both @karaswisher and @JimRuttShow have offered to moderate a debate. Lots of people expressed interest here @twitter. How about it?"

  That’s my man Gary! Let’s see it @AndrewYang (TBH From Gary’s new book vs yours I think you agree about most stuff — he might even be a little too optimistic IMHO, e.g. you can beat him up on all that “AGI scientist” nonsense)

  That would be an excellent book for politicians to read.

  @AndrewYang is focused primarily on automation, which exists and progresses somewhat disjointly from general AI research (though the public is unaware of the distinction). I fear such a debate would amount to two ships passing in the night, with neither party getting much out.

  This seems like grandstanding. Yang a politician concerned re automation, hollowing out of middle class etc. Not the specifics of AI or path to AGI.
