Meh. That's a sour grapes comment from someone who has achieved little to nothing themselves. All you need to do is watch a few of his lectures. He understands this stuff deeply, he's obviously extremely intelligent, and he, quite possibly, made stronger impact in the field than anybody else by just teaching AI better than anybody else to a much larger audience than anybody else. Likewise Hassabis' impact on the field is not to be underestimated. Deepmind is cranking out brilliant papers faster than I can read them at times. That would not be possible without Hassabis.
