I am just looking it, sounds interesting. That real innovations reduced to arrive at homeopathic dosis fits my perceptions. I would even guess stronger variants.

I second Risto. This reads like a spam header.

I have no idea what you're saying here.

I mean that substantial innovations came the past ca. 3 decades much rarer than one should have expected. Kasparov and Thiel say that in view of AI and communication technology, whereas my impression comes from science.

Thanks. Try writing your posts more like this to begin with and they'll be less likely to get voted into the negative.

I find it interesting that the cofounder of the Singularity Institute now expresses so sarcastic about attempted work on AI the past decades. Has there been any related discussion on this or similar sites?
