Gwern, thank you for your excellent coverage of hydrocephalus and the implications for intelligence.

You're welcome. I didn't want to write it because I don't find it that interesting and such a post always takes a frustrating amount of time to write because one has to dig into the details & jailbreak a lot of papers etc, and I'd rather write more constructive things like about all our GPT-2 projects than yet another demoralizing criticism piece, but people kept mentioning it as if it wasn't awful, so... At least it should spare anyone else, right?
