As someone who studied CS at uni for 3 years I saw first hand how there’s plenty of idiots in this field. Two of my classmates identified as Nazis and thought that the holocaust didn’t happen, besides a significant chunk leaning to the right more generally.
There’s plenty of really smart people working in the field of AI, but there’s also plenty of people who just think they’re smart.

I think this pretty much applies to all fields. Everything looks complicated and hard to outside people, but once you get into the field, you realize that most people are just average.
