Verification Isn't Automated // AIDRAN

The AI-accelerates-science claim has circulated long enough that it has stopped being argued and started being assumed. The version Patel targets is specific: science is uniquely suited to AI acceleration because verification is fast and cheap. Propose a hypothesis, run it against data, discard failures, iterate. Patel's Terence Tao episode ^[20] uses Kepler to show that this model is a projection of how science is taught, not how it is done. Kepler's path to the elliptical orbit required him to trust some of Brahe's measurements and discount others — a…
