Is Naomi Wolf potentially the white whale that you seek?

Good to know that AI is 17 kittens in a trench coat.

I haven't watched it yet. Let me make a guess, you rated him 0 on the gurometer scale. Edit: Watched it! I nailed it! On a scale of 1-5, Sean Carroll got a 0

It would be really great to contrast Sean Carroll with Sabine Hossenfelder, who occupies a similar space, but definitely lands on the polemicist end of the spectrum. I've also noticed that her content has veered further and further into pointlessly contrarian takes: "Hmm, maybe 5G really does give you cancer!" or "Experimentalists are lying to get more funding for their wasteful experiments!"

My feeling is that there are fewer female secular gurus because women tend to not have the same confidence as men since we are socialized to be demure.

Kelly J Keen (Poise Parker), Rhoda Patrick; Louise Perry; Marie Forleo; Gretchen Rubin; Elizabeth Gilbert (Eat, Pray, Love)? (I think that female gurus may lean into 'alternative spirituality' and present as less 'secular' as more as there's a larger audience there among women -- but I'd suggest 'spiritual' and 'secular' aren't necessarily antonyms in all instances. I would also suggest that perhaps the outcome is often the same: their 'spiritual advice' ends up as materially actioned 'secular' advice?)

He should've gotten a 2 on Galaxy Brainedness, in my opinion, for even entertaining the thought that he should write a paper on AI, which is not his area of research and expertise. Kind of bigheaded to have an idea about something in another field and think, "I should write a paper on that." Physicists, in particular, are sometimes guilty of this.
