Being smarter than 'phones

Biological knowledge must include understanding; it must be more than can be called up on a smartphone.


This note I made before the advent of AI. I am a great fan of AI. It can help us understand biology, especially if the responses given prompt us to ask better questions (aka prompts*).

* I wonder if, at least in some people's minds, the word 'question' will come to be replaced by the word 'prompt'.
