(He does talk "conventional, muggle nonsense" about early history of neural nets - I did expects better of him, given his reputation and track record.

Otherwise, some of his remarks are very interesting; however, he is not too up-to-date with the trends in the AI community (e.g. with the current push towards more explainable AI). So it's a mixed bag.)
