So why is it, that all these so called 'tech experts' people who present programmes such as BBC click et al, can't see all this, we seem to be being brainwashed in to thinking AI is super clever and able to do things, that from this article can't actually do properly. Perhaps in the case of research AI seems to be used, when people are too lazy to actually do the research, find and read papers and write and cite things properly.

What is written here does seem to highlight the issue very well.
