I agree. Plus there are just complications in their being a wide perception of such a discovery: if a model makes some novel, PhD-level insight the audience for it will be quite narrow. No one is expecting them to be making household name level discoveries yet. Plus attribution difficulties: the models aren’t used in autonomous settings for the most part so there is some ambiguity on how much credit to give + people like credit

@Sauers_ It’s a weird quirk.. I’ve sometimes read it as just being overly literal about the fact the request is technically underspecified so that what it’s doing is just one possible solution. I’ve also seen in outright fail in this basin though so maybe a contest of forces here..
