Chemists here. Outside of Alpha-fold, which is an astounding success based on a large but limited and curated data set, AI hasn't shown much use in replacing chemist. It's very difficult to capture the chemical literature in an accurate and meaningful way. And with the explosion in the volume of scientific publishing, you can bet a lot of the newer stuff isn't high quality. LLM's don't know how to capture structures. My forays into asking for structural information turn up nonsense. Unfortunately, if you're doing anything these days, you're gonna have to say you're using AI to be considered serious, regardless of whether it works or not.
