"For the last few years, startups have shamelessly re-branded rudimentary machine-learning algorithms as the dawn of the singularity, aided by investors and analysts who have a vested interest in building up the hype. Welcome to the artificial intelligence bullshit-industrial complex." (https://gen.medium.com/the-bs-industrial-complex-of-phony-a-i-44bf1c0c60f8)

General sneer: it's shocking and indeed completely surprising and unexpected that pretty much every media personality, poster, and public intellectual whose shtick is "I'm really very liberal but maybe woke excess has gone too far" eventually ends up pulling out the ol' skull calipers.

I used to think referring to calipers all the time in discussion of Quillette was a bit obscurantist and an exaggeration and a step too ironically removed from their actual beliefs but then "researchers can classify human variation by continent quite accurately using only data from the human skull."
