For instance, I would be completely fine with this if they said "We will train it on a very large database of articles and finding relevant scientific information will be easier than before". But no they have to hype it up with nonsense expectations so they can generate short term profits for their fucking shareholders. This will either come at the cost of the next AI winter or senseless allocation of major resources to a model of AI that is not sustainable in the long run.

Well get your news about it from scientific papers and experts instead of tabloids and advertisements.

I mean the person who said this is the CTO of OpenAI and an engineer working in this project. I would imagine she could be considered an expert.
