It's sad that he is the only one speaking out about Hinton. This whole Hinton glorification seems like it's being pushed by an agenda. I'm not sure if he would receive this much attention if he held a different view (closer to LeCun or Ng), rather than these Effective Altruism takes on current AI.
I don't associate Hinton will Effective Altruism. He did switch to focus on warning of the dangers of AI, but that was after he already was established as the father (or one of them) of deep learning.
