    Dr. DD to me is a top rank mathematician and computer scientist at heart with the philosophical bravery of Dr. Who. RESPECT.

    It will be great to get Geoffrey Hinton and David Deutsch together in a debate.

    David never fails to amaze with his incredible wisdom. No authoritative figure who propagates bad explanations is safe around his sheer brilliance.
