No such thing as an AI chemist (a chemist being someone who has a degree in chemistry or related), oh that's not even the title. Near-autonomous AI chemist improves challenging reaction in medicinal chemistry

I also had a strong reaction to the title from their research blog; too anthropomorphic. Model, agent, or system don't have the same personification.

I noticed the Wikipedia article so that it was a "graduated scientist" (outside of UK).

It made me wonder what other professions require an associate's degree or better to be able to claim the profession without some sort of modifier, such as licensed physician, or Master plumber...
