Ask HN: Why did the godfather of AI retire given that AI can help you code?

1•amichail•8mo ago
And more generally, doesn't AI allow more people to never retire?

Comments

Who is the godfather of AI and when did they retire?
khedoros1•8mo ago
Geoffrey Hinton has been called that. He left Google in May 2023, so I think it's reasonable that that's who the post refers to.
khedoros1•8mo ago
The dude's 77, for one. A lot of people retire long before that age. Second, it's not hard to find articles about his retirement that state his reasons.

One example: https://www.technologyreview.com/2023/05/01/1072478/deep-lea...

> And more generally, doesn't AI allow more people to never retire?

I don't understand what you mean. It's arguably forcing some people out of work. And I'm not sure what about "AI" (I'm supposing you mean specific techs like LLMs?) would help people not retire...or why that would be a good thing.
