This article sort of lists the ideals, but is factually contradicted by the immense amounts of non-impactful and trivial AI papers, who have around 20 authors each.

There does seem to be a strong incentive to publish whatever and distribute the credit among dozens of people.

For the rare actually impactful research the advice is a bit trivial, you might as well quote Feynman:

  1) Sit down.

  2) Think hard.

  3) Write down the solution.


Pet peeve: you're quoting not-Feynman.


For context, Gell-Mann just said this was how Feynman solved problems, Feynman didn't say it.

(Coincidentally it's the same case as the term "Gell-Mann Amnesia".9
