⚡️🇦🇪 NEW - Nobel Prize laureate Professor Kornberg says AI lacks the creativity humans possess and uses only the knowledge it is given: "In the areas that I know, where important discoveries were made, they were contrary to all existing knowledge."

He hasn't obviously been to #moltbook 😂😂😂 .. big microphones but unaware of current reality ..
Moltbook like all LLMs is good at writing language and code. Wake me up when they're making new discoveries that contradict existing paradigms.
Most discoveries ( these days ) happen NOT because of a new insight ..but by patching diverse branches of science and philosophy.. that is what AI is great at .. and that is the very definition of creativity .. we seldom discover new things
Yes, that's true. Lots of scientific discoveries happen this way, by just combining insights that are "obvious" to different fields that don't talk to one another. And LLM's are absolutely useful for that.
But this happy scenario of "synergy" isn't always the case, and lots of times the "upstart" knowledge flatly contradicts orthodoxies in the existing field. LLM's, that are trained to do things like write code efficiently, are "evolved" specifically to eliminate things that contradict orthodoxy -- that's what we call "hallucinations."
Exactly!
The destruction of the Prussian model of schooling is the counter to AI. I > AI
