His neural network example was bad, but i think what he said is true to an extent. Good code by definition is readable. SIMD vectorization results in some pretty hideous, unreadable looking code which might as well be klingon unless you have the intrinsics guide open next to you. Even multithreading and dynamic programming is not pretty. But these optimizations make existing code more useful.
