TBH, I think you're worrying about a future that is likely to become much more fun than boring. For actual research mathematics, there is no reason why an AI (maybe not current entirely statistical models) shouldn't be able to gui

Honestly, it seems to fail a lot on topics where there is a strong bias in the legacy media. There is also no "deduplication" of similar topics and related events. I'd suggest a very different approach, expanding on the metho
