James Rosen-Birch ⚖️🕊️(@provisionalidea):it’s hard to not see much of the hypebros’ excitement about AI results like this as a sort of giddy desire to see expertise torn down, and experts torn a new one. there’s a kind of promise of anyone being able to do anything without putting in any hard work or effort that the marketing taps into, a sort of ‘get rich quick’ notion but for knowledge work, where all you need to do is ask the right question and the machine does it all for you. the very suggestion that it still doesn’t work that way and you have to do some work and know what you’re talking about to interpret the output really pisses those folks off.

scientific publishing was already experiencing an unprecedented overflow and validation crisis; dropping 722 papers with bold claims as an engineering-as-marketing project makes this an order of magnitude worse. if your idea of science is just a list of splashy headlines about Major Breakthroughs!, you’ve completely missed the point.
