Otherwise AI is a godsend for many fields, including science and medicine and other kinds of important research.
That's debatable. There has not been a breakthrough using this technology yet and I have yet to see it as transformational in biomedical research, even though I published three papers now based on AI tools.
Having AI tools in biomedical research is utterly pointless when the US killed most research when Trump killed the NIH, and that spending was 80% of the world's spending in diseases research and other countries have done nothing to fill that gap.
The concept that AI will quickly produce a safe, effective drug that works for any disease is pure science fiction.
