So, instead of people attacking him for absurdly hyping the model, they attacked the model as being DANGEROUS in order to remove it to .... spite whom exactly? Typical academic catfight

Also, let's not pretend that every academic and institution is not overhyping their work. If you read a bunch of academic press releases you 'd think we are on the verge of curing cancer and fusion any day now.



>So, instead of people attaching him for absurdly hyping the model, they attached the model as being DANGEROUS

Because it's considered rude to attack people directly; less offensive to say "this product sucks" than "you suck".


You are attacking his entire team that way. They are people too


Blatantly false claims and "hype" need to be addressed immediately and strongly when they're being pushed into places that actually matter, like city streets and medical science.


It may hurt their pride, but it’s not attacking them, it’s criticizing the product.


Accusing people of making a Dangerous product is just that, an accusation.

That 's a very passiveaggressive way to say "you re overhyping"


Criticizing a product doesn’t imply that you’re accusing anyone of anything.
