Re: He's part of the conspiracy!

Don't mistake conspiracy for incompetence.

Ng just wants his next research grant, and does not want to deal with ethical issues, or people asking questions about AI research in general. Ng will probably be retired before truly intelligent machines are built.

Also, Ng seems to be doing big data statistical research, which is a long, long way from the core AI research which will eventually produce the AI.
