It's fascinating to see someone who is positioned as "one of the top 3-10 AI scientists in the world" endorsing a platform based on some marketing videos, without even trying it, let alone reviewing any of the critical details.
To be fair, I think he is mostly endorsing the concept of the implementation, lined out in his seven points, not the actual implementation since it isn’t available yet.
The tone and the writing style seem to imply otherwise, it's almost like PR copytext. For example, Point 7 arguably contradicts Point 5 and 6. It's like an infomercial for tech fans.
Although I see what you mean with respect to the concept of implementation and the actual implementation.
Personally, I think this is more of a financial play, he's got to be thinking about how to maximize benefits (financial, status) in the next few years before the hype dies down. This is a very cynical mode of thinking; but I think my cynicism is justified.
I mean, the way I see it he also has an economic incentive to endorse more AI everywhere.
On the other hand he seems to be one of the people actually pushing for saner legislation.
