Remember that MIT paper which showed that researchers leveraging AI are significantly more productive (as in: a higher number of discoveries), yet are less satisfied with their work (as they are relegated to drudgery while AI does all the hard, challenging, and exciting work)?
Well, it turns out that this was another case of “too good to be true.” MIT just recalled the paper, the researcher who published the paper isn’t affiliated with MIT anymore, and MIT states it “has no confidence in the provenance, reliability, or validity of the data and has no confidence in the veracity of the research contained in the paper.”
Ouch.
