"When an AI is capable of creating new explanatory theories that are GOOD (not world salad)" and statements like it miss an important point. Here, let me explain via snark: "When a person is capable of creating new explanatory theories that are GOOD (not world salad)" Let's not flatter ourselves, we were never very good at a lot of things to begin with.
