This article is about the same thing I mentioned in a sibling comment. I personally don't find an unreplicated Google white paper to be compelling evidence.
The AI coming up with it? When Google claimed their Wizard of Oz show at the Las Vegas Sphere was AI-generated, a ton of VFX artists spoke up to say they'd spent months of human labor working on it. Forgive me for not giving the benefit of the doubt to a company that has a vested interest in making their AI seem more powerful, and a track record of lying to do so.
And it's not an accident that significant percentage (40%?) of all papers being published in top journals involve application of AIs.
