I have spent my entire life working on this and thinking about this for the past 4 years. I don't know what will happen in 20 years, but I can promise you that on the 5-10 year timescale, scientists are not out of their jobs. AI is going to massively accelerate the pace of science, increase productivity, let individual scientists make way more discoveries way faster, and is going to make science overall more fun. But the model is going to be collaboration between humans and AI, not replacement.

The key difference here between science and e.g. software engineering is that science is not verifiable in any rapid/convenient way (unlike software), unlike programming. We still need humans for their scientific taste.

🧑‍🎓Mentorship is the cornerstone of a scientific career and is critical for the continued progress of science. In a new reflection article authors from authors at @SingaporeUNI, @Inserm and @ucddublin explore “how mentees define good mentorship”.
