woah @Noahpinion is attacking @demishassabis here — calling what Demis said not “credible” — but misinterpreting what Hassabis is actually saying. What Demis actually said is both completely credible and completely correct. He is not emphasizing a specific problem but rather the challenge of building systems that can innovate across domains. We are not there yet. And Demis should know since he runs probably the best team in the world working on that very question. Honestly this doesn't sound credible. Professional mathematicians tried for years to solve that problem and failed.
