Will Any Crap Cause Emergent Misalignment?
trade_apprentice20d20

On reading the title I guessed that it was in the spirit of the paper Will Any Crap We Put into Graphene Increase Its Electrocatalytic Effect?, that is, being somewhat dismissive of (or even mocking) similar research. If it’s not the intention it may be worth it to change the title to avoid that impression.

From the conclusion of said article: “Because doping graphene with cheap bird droppings produces more electrocatalytic materials than many complex multielemental doping procedures, we do not see any justification for such efforts, and we believe that researchers should focus their energy on other research directions.”

While we're at it, I might as well wish for the "flashback: this is not a threat" lecture.

This reminded me to the Goldfish reading post, and it turns out it's the same author.

Ask an experimental physicist

Not an answer, but there is a beautiful short sci-fi story by Isaac Asimov that touches on this theme called "The last question". I don't know if it is okay to provide a link but it isn't hard to find online.
