“Innovation is slowing, research productivity is declining, scientific work is becoming more disruptive. In this video I summarize what we know about the problem and what possible causes have been proposed. I also explain why this matters so much to me.” – Sabine Hossenfelder
I’ll say this for her stuff: for a person so willing to argue that mainstream positions on her field are wrong or disregarding data out of conservatism she sure tends to latch on information she agrees with in areas where she’s not an expert and disregard other information.
I’d argue in this specific one her dismissal of “we could argue about how these guys are measuring innovation, but all the papers seem to find the same thing” seems like exactly that, but hey.
