repligate reposted a reply from gojomo linking to the Wikipedia entry for "Target fixation" — the attentional phenomenon where focusing too hard on a target causes crashes (common among pilots and motorcyclists). In AI circles the repost reads as a metaphor for models or researchers over-fixating on an objective, though no further commentary is given.
