Easy take: calling linear algebra “quantum physics” and “artificial intelligence” is hype. Deeper: the huge influx of physicists into AI has produced an intellectual monoculture that isn’t capable of addressing key problems in the field.https://twitter.com/WIRED/status/1181437300414275584 …

Replying to @Meaningness
I partially agree with the latter point (former physicist checking in) - but - I don't think that's a reasonable inference you can draw from the article. I think it has more to do with the lack of mathematical training of the journalists that cover this stuff.

Replying to @F_Vaggi
Yes, I agree. I was making the "monoculture" point on the basis of my take on the direction of the field overall in the past ~5 years, rather than drawing on the article specifically.
