The Spin

Techno-optimist narrative

Kosmos is a genuine breakthrough in AI-driven scientific discovery, having made seven externally validated discoveries across multiple fields following years of rigorous development. With its high factual accuracy, Kosmos could quickly advance scientific research and technological development, becoming transformative in the field.

Techno-skeptic narrative

AI scientists are hype without substance, delivering vague results that no legitimate scientist would take seriously. These systems fundamentally lack the empirical rigor, transparency and contextual understanding necessary for credible research. By entrusting AI to spearhead scientific discovery, its supporters risk undermining the integrity of science itself.
