Whether you agree with Hinton or not, this is a great video for general audiences.
Thank you for sharing it on HN!
Very bad for general audiences because it's structured as daytime TV, all begged questions, undefined terms, vague analogies, appeals to common sense and bruh-vibes. This kind of dialog is hopelessly inadequate to the topic, and promulgates mysticism in place of understanding, such at the utterly unstructured claim of thinking with no definition. If this was Rogan or Diary of CEO horseshit it wouldn't be worth commenting, but this is G. Hinton spouting. So disheartening.
Perhaps. Maybe the Veritasium style of presenting science topics would be better than Neil DeGrasse Tyson and the two others with their casual jolly interview format.
