AI Snake Oil
Cutting through AI hype with academic rigor.
About
AI Snake Oil, written by Princeton researchers Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor, cuts through AI hype with academic rigor, scrutinizing overstated claims about what these systems can actually do. It grew out of their widely read work separating real AI progress from marketing copy.
Pieces are argument-driven and evidence-based, often directly challenging claims made by AI companies or breathless media coverage. A skeptical, research-grounded counterweight to the rest of the AI newsletter world.
