The best example of this was an arguement I had a little while ago where I was talking about self driving and I was mentioning that I have a hard time trusting any system relying only on cameras, to which I was being told that I didn't understand how machine learning works and obviously they were correct and I was wrong and every car would be self driving within 5 years. All of these things could easily be verified independently.
Suffice to say that I am not sure that the "bullshit-radar" is that adaptive...
Mind you, this is not limited to the particular issue at hand but I think those situations needs to be highlighted, because we get fooled easily by authoritative delivery...
