Many of us are waiting for you to show why hybrid systems are the future of general intelligence. All we hear is hype. Everyone has been using hybrids all along but we still don't have full self-driving cars or robots that can walk into a kitchen & make a cup of coffee.
fundamentally, hype is not something a reputable research organization should be trying to “win”; it’s something they should be trying to avoid. doing good work should take precedence over fooling the public into thinking the work is more powerful than it actually is https://twitter.com/_Andrew_Bean/status/1186828503246876672 …pic.twitter.com/vOaIdHZXoc

I absolutely agree, I’m just saying I see why people continue to contribute to the hype. To quote a colleague, “this isn’t a competition... but life’s a competition.”

If the hype builds company value, then how realistic is it to expect companies to prioritize academic values over their bottom line? I will trust the researchers but can I trust their PR people with this?

The risk with hype is that if the bubble bursts, people find they haven’t built value. On the other hand, every company needs some “sizzle” to keep people interested eg if Google always spoke about being an ad business, people would fall asleep! Hence quantum supremacy etc.

The problem is when academics paid millions need to justify the business value of their great academic results to business who is funding what is academic work which has very little business value. The business value of such work is marketing and hype.
