Do you think that it is possible that very soon (maybe they are doing it already) AI would have close to perfect market predictions?
I saw this article about protein folding. Best scientists were beaten by AI with a large margin.

Interesting points there: will scientists (apart from those programming AI maybe) become obsolete?
A large part of doing science is based on being able to stake the claim that you did something first (discovery, etc.).
Personally, I don't see much use of doing science of you are doing so at some primitive level when AI gets all the "best parts".
This would feel awful.
There will be a crisis (maybe limited to natural sciences, though).
We could be already in it and will realize it soon.
