Scientific thinking, or a generalized and incomplete algebra of reason, is exactly what you get from a GPT. Nothing more. Basically, I would argue that this article sees a real issue, but seems to get it backwards. All formal logical systems are incomplete and/or inconsistent. Scientific thinking is also shaped by reality - which army turned out to have the better ballistics, and so forth. Of course the next thing to chew on is: Are you just an “algebra of reason” too? I don’t buy that, but it’s a common belief.
