@GaryMarcus As far as I see, the definition of „Deep Learning“ keeps changing all the time and might soon include the points you mention. 😂

OMG please. You can’t be serious. You think GenAI is better than fire, electricity, agriculture, writing, the printing press, science, medicine, vaccines, sanitation, democracy, and the internet?

Most people could happily live their lives without GenAI. I would certainly…
