Oh yeah I have as much respect for him as I can have for any other celebrity I've never met or interacted with at all. I just wanted to get ahead of anyone responding to me pointing out that he's not particularly qualified on this subject.

The reason I referenced him at all was not because of his qualifications, but as a way of establishing how popular these conversations were on the internet at the time. In that sense, the fact that he's not an AI or finance expert and doesn't specialize in such content speaks to how widespread the topic was at the time.
