Schmidhuber Plagiarism Accusation and Academic Integrity in AI
By
–
I would prefer not to keep doing this, but Schmidhuber made a post accusing me of plagiarism yesterday. There’s no academic court where I can be tried and found guilty/ not guilty once and for all, though the opinion of the NeurIPS organizers should be clear.
