i've said this before but i'm gonna say it again: it's *fascinating* watching the software industry rediscover why best practices exist in real time

"AI can make mistakes, always check the results"

I fucking loathe this phrase and everything that goes into it. It's not advice. It's a threat.

You probably read it as "AI is _capable_ of making mistakes; you _should_ check the results".

What it actually says is "AI is _permitted_ to make mistakes; _you are liable_ for the results, whether you check them or not".

Except "you" is generally not even the person building, installing, or even using the AI. It's the person the AI is used on:

@tante As a scientist, I can say that yes, these people are unequivocally missing the point.

"Research" (reading literature, evaluating contrasting papers, etc) is different from "research" (theorizing or designing and doing experiments), and this latter definition cannot be done by these AI tools.

You need to interact with the real world in some way and those interactions are where you, the scientist, actually learn valuable things that are worth writing about and sharing.

"You go to sleep, the agent does the science and when you wake up, you have the results."

That's not how any of this works. You're not "doing research with help" you have something generated that looks like a research report. Without the research happening. How many different ways can "AI" bros find to express "I AM TOTALLY MISSING THE POINT"?

Lmao. Gen AI is causing outages at AWS and Amazon causing business income loss. So now all AI created code needs senior developers to check it twice. So how is this saving time? #ai #llm #aws

Most economists agree that by the time you're 50, you should be living in a book-filled cottage at the edge of the forest and solving minor mysteries in your village with the aid of a curious ghost cat.
