The media and the VCs are treating Sam like some hero and savior of AI. I’m not getting it. What has he done in life and/or AI to deserve so much respect and admiration? Why don’t top researchers and scientists get equivalent (if not more) respect, admiration and support? It looks like one should strive to become product manager, not an engineer or a scientist.

he tells a good story, no matter if its true or has any scientific foundation or not.

He tells what others like to hear, and manages to gain money out of it

Half of being a good CEO is telling a good story, so that's not surprising.
