If actual scientists were in charge, and maybe had some ideas that they weren't certain would work but sounded promising, which could be theoretically tested with AI - there would be hope.
But none of these fuckers would allow anyone with more than half a brain cell near it, because "investment and growth and blablabla"

Then again, we could just do that with existing supercomputers and all these power hungry AI crap companies' resources (I'm sure some supercomputers do get used for the modelling already)...instead of whatever the fuck they're trying to do now.
