TwitterBoy showing his blatant ignorance against one of the people who literally invented modern machine learning.

Nothing shockingly unexpected from the very stable 10D chess master genius of course, but oh my, how embarrassing it must be for all the people working for him.

It's the same whenever he gets shown up.

"I'll save those schoolboys with my robot submarine!"

*submarine won't fit in cave*

*schoolboys are rescued by a diver*

"Pedo guy..."

I'm sure he can be forgiven for not knowing the name of a scientist whose work his employees build upon

The fact that he didn't believe them when they claimed to be a scientist though

Ttereal tellers is ttattElonkows nothing about AI. Anyone involved in the field knows all of the big names because we read their papers, listen to their lectures, and talk about their models. He then goes on to be dismissive of work he’s not even close to understanding. It’s blatant ignorance, and Elon is used to just being able to power through his ignorance by either BSing his way past people who know no more than him or firing anyone who is actually qualified and as a result disagrees with him.
