The transcript segments this claim was taken from
“So I think less gatekeeping, more open, and then allowing people to say,”
“look,”
“even if this is just on quote unquote just an archive,”
“if it has like a thousand citations,”
“it's a legitimate paper.”
“It doesn't really matter where you published it.”
“And I agree with that.”Play from 33:21Report a misattribution
