Did the title get changed, or have I started hallucinating?

Title is:

"I got fooled by AI-for-science hype—here's what it taught me"



It got changed (for the worse, in my opinion) away from the original title.

The original title is supposed to be favored here unless it has a serious problem.

This original title had no serious problem, unless accurately summarizing a PhD candidate's thoughtful critique of some questionable AI contributions to scientific research is a serious problem.


The present title is more friendly to VCs and the tech industry, shocking no one.
