don't worry, science as conclusions derived from research will soon be replaced by bullshit psuedo-research-AI-word-vomit derived from equally bullshit pre-determined conclusions

You should really watch this -- AI is being used in real research, and not all of it is bad. Those who think AI is bad are simply uneducated luddites.

Luddites’ main concern was the systemic redirection of revenue from them, the laborers, to the owners of the factories. They did not simply hate technology for technology’s sake.

The fact that you ignore this basic historical fact betrays an embarrassing ignorance.

I personally don’t give a shit if some AI is used in research. I think that’s awesome. But AI also actively and materially deprives laborers of compensation for their work, both before and after the model training process. And I fucking hate that.
