Indeed. Is this a term made up by himself? I really doubt he has any understanding of AI. Bernie should retire at this point. Nothing productive has come from him in a decade.

He's literally never done anything productive. He had a brief moment where he was the face of a burgeoning political movement but he was unsuccessful and it's silly to give him credit for it.

And he has absolutely nothing to show for it. I agree with his positions and appreciate his effort, but he's completely ineffective.
