To me it seems that demanding scientific rigour misses the mark. What will be important in the end is results. I think it's pretty obvious that image generation such as Midjourney and Stable Diffusion is an incredible technological advancement. Who cares if the science behind it is solid? Or even if the papers published by companies that sell the technology are solid? LLMs still need to prove themselves to some extent but it's already clear that something unprecedented is actually going on here. That's why everyone is hyped/freaked out. But we have not yet figured out exactly how useful the technology really is.
