Här kommer lite fler siffror. Den amerikanska forskaren Vivienne Ming skrev nyligen så här på Linkedin:
”While scientists using AI are undeniably successful—publishing 3x more papers, receiving nearly 5x more citations, and becoming project leaders 1.37 years earlier—their reliance on these tools is causing the collective scope of science to shrink. AI-augmented research is narrowing by 4.63%, gravitating toward data-rich, established fields rather than risking the unknown.
AI servants lift scientists even as it sinks science. If we use AI merely as a servant to automate our habits, we fall into the Exploitation Trap: we mine the same ground faster, but we stop looking for new mines.”
Det här var tidigare en vanlig kritik av AI och nu verkar alltså forskningen hålla med.
