Yann LeCun is not a good person, but at least he's significantly smarter than Elon

This person seems like an ass. Science is only when you publish peer reviewed papers. Ok so you're telling me Archimedes and Eratosthenes and al-Kwharzimi and Newton and everyone who figured shit out before the modern system of academia wasn't doing science? This is not a defense of melon-musk , to be clear. He should have his wealth confiscated and his companies nationalized at the minimum.

I mean Newton thought alchemy was a real science. Apparently he wrote over a million words spread out over years on alchemy and conducted countless experiments, these papers were only found after his death.

Every time I see Elon's picture in one of these posts, my brain tells me he's wearing an Ant Man costume.
