I asked a big LLM to name some of today's prominent public intellectuals. It put Henry Kissinger, Francis Fukuyama, and Neil deGrasse Tyson near the top of the list. It mentioned several economists who looked pretty boring at first glance (Yanis Varoufakis did not make the list), and a couple of cheesy pop science writers, before finally getting around to Slavoj Žižek. Immediately after that it descended into pure gibberish.
