This gets a bit tiring.
@OpenAI: "we flew a rocket in space."
@GaryMarcus: "technically, you flew through the atmosphere first."
Why not get excited about the AMAZING accomplishment and trajectory here? The dexterity is incredible!

What's tiring is the fanboy defenses. Any ordinary person would read the first two sentences of the paper plus the tweet as meaning that a pure neural network system learned to solve Rubik's cubes. that's not what happened.

It seems that there is no announcement of any accomplishment which you cannot find a way to diminish. THAT'S what I find tiring. The imagination of the next generation of scientists won't be captured by nit picking; it needs bold headlines (WITH accurate footnotes).

There are many results I say nothing about; it's only hype that I am allergic too. Even this one I said was impressive in its own way. I didn't complain eg about the BaoDing ball result last week, which was not oversold in the same way.
