Physicist Murray Gell-Mann, for whom the effect was named. Crichton first described the "Murray Gell-Mann Amnesia effect" in an April 2002 speech about speculation to the International Leadership Forum: [1] Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well.

In a speech in 2002, Crichton coined the term Gell-Mann amnesia effect to describe the phenomenon of experts reading articles within their fields of expertise and finding them to be error-ridden and full of misunderstanding, but seemingly forgetting those experiences when reading articles in the same publications written on topics outside of ...
The New York Times reference in the article has no mention of either Gell-Mann or amnesia. The WP-intern link Gell-Mann amnesia effect goes to M. Chrichton. The content of this effect is thin, and from Crichton alone, who for fun pasted the name of Gell-Mann on it. The Murray Gell-Mann amnesia effect is wikipedia garbage.
The Gell-Mann matrices, developed by Murray Gell-Mann, are a set of eight linearly independent 3×3 traceless Hermitian matrices used in the study of the strong interaction in particle physics. They span the Lie algebra of the SU(3) group in the defining representation.

The renormalization group prediction (cf. Stueckelberg–Petermann and Gell-Mann–Low works) was confirmed 40 years later at the LEP accelerator experiments: the fine structure "constant" of QED was measured [6] to be about 1 ⁄ 127 at energies close to 200 GeV, as opposed to the standard low-energy physics value of 1 ⁄ 137.
