On the positive side of bots as the new academic star, they have been of great assistance to me in reading papers from disciplines that I am unfamiliar with yet interested in - use them as a shortcut search for technical terms that appeared in the paper but for merely peripheral functions saved me huge amounts of time searching them in your textbooks. Another role the bots may play in mass produced journal papers is that bots can detect misconducts in data analysis automatically - filtering out the junks, the gems will still be retained
