I think we should apply AI into human, so we could be better and then start doing more advanced stuff required for the Universe explorations. Current AI/LLMs can be considered as first step to that. Take and look about our history. We could never achieve so many if we stopped doing great things because of <any reason>.

Why do we ever use PCs, smartphones, Internet, electricity, medicine and so on? Why do we live? For what?

I don’t have a problem with using AI in the applied sciences once a researcher has proven their skills. I do have a problem with it damaging education, the pure math pipeline, and art.

I understand but I guess the future (far future or who knows) could be like that human just download SKILL and that's it - no more learning, study ing basic things. While basic things could be advanced math, computer science, biology and just everything (or nearly everything) what human do. I know it is science fiction right now but who knows. Smartphone + the Internet were step 0. AI/LLMs are next iteration. Still knowledge is valueable and so on but I guess eventually we get to the point which I said. Then galaxy exploration - if we still be here alive :)

I don't have a problem with AI to generate code..so long as the developer understands the output and would review his own mess rather than expecting those who know how to code will save the burning house after everyone's left in panic.
