TLDR: Article starts by mentioning a bunch of current/past applications of AI to science, many of which are in the medical field where (the article fails to mention) no AI system has ever been shown to improve the quality or length of human life in a randomized clinical trial. It takes a very long time to then mention just 2 things that could "revolutionize" science: LLM style systems could help you find collaborators or generate hypotheses, or "self-driving labs" could generate new hypotheses on their own, and run experiments with (presumably) minimal human intervention.
But it remains totally unclear whether those things are achievable, and to what extent they can actually do real, useful science, rather than just exist as a novelty. Of course AI "can" revolutionize science. But the proof is in the pudding. Write an article when something has happened, rather than predicting that it will (and being wrong, like every such article written for the past 70 years).
