Like many of NASA’s inventions and space flight research were created in part due to ex Nazi scientists recruited via Operation Paperclip. Is it wrong to use that technology?
There’s an interesting article about this sort of thing in medicine here:

So, what do you think? Are discoveries made through AI acceptable?

@CM30@ohai.social Yes. They are. Some people treat AI as always evil...Personally, I have a blurry line that I draw in terms of what I find an acceptable use of AI. AI is a new tool. Like digital cameras and Photoshop...it's disruptive and probably one of the biggest things to threaten change in the modern post computer world. But it's still just a tool. I don't mind it being used for hobbyist software, or in computer security/defense/research/medical research. Not able to fit all my thoughts in a toot.
