“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

    Not all written science is good science. Often the methodology is flawed. It requires very trained eyes to detect potential flaws in a methodology. It’s common that scientists disagree with each other. Science is the process to resolve these disagreements.

    I don’t trust Sabine is able to accurately depict the current state of these topics. Her main expertise is physics. I don’t believe she can determine the quality of the papers she mentioned or make a complete survey of the topic.

    And that’s why many are disappointed in her. She should know it’s not her field of expertise. She’s not in a position to make these kind of videos.
