IMO, AI is like the ultimate 'tipping point' experiment sifting through all our known knowledge. Once it combines all those data points it will shine a light on things we actually already discovered without us actually acknowledging the correlation. But once AI runs out of new data it then runs the risk of stagnation. AI needs to be looking into how to keep enriching its current data set by obtaining new data without direct human curation.

A concern that i have is the lack of transparency with which these companies are working. All researchers always have to get ethics approvals and publish the work. I cant seem to see anybody talking about the process documentation and public access to what is taking place in terms of all these models and thinking going behind the scenes.
