I’m going to assume that Shane Legg has thought about it more and read more of the existing work than many of us combined. Certainly, there are smart people who haven’t thought about it much, but Shane is definitely not one of them. He only had a short 5-minute talk, but I do hope to see a longer treatment on how he expects we will fully solve necessary property 3.

I think it’s important to distinguish between:
Has understood a load of work in the field.
Has understood all known fundamental difficulties.
It’s entirely possible to achieve (1) without (2).
I’d be wary of assuming that any particular person has achieved (2) without good evidence.
