An interesting aside: the politically charged members of the AI world are trying to cancel Pedro Domingos. For example he was a victim of a (failed) attempt at cancellation by Anima Anandkumar, Director of AI at Nvidia. See what I wrote about it at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25419871

Oh for heaven's sake. If you're going to be ethically honest about this, note that he tweeted speculation about her porn habits. When is a person allowed to fight back? Is there a sufficiently "polite" way you'd like her to react? Convenient that her side of the argument gets to be labelled "cancellation".

My God. Can we not just have an old-fashioned down & dirty fight these days without it being labelled a "cancellation"?
