The Suicide of Science?

Science is a philosophy that's improved the lives of millions of humans. Human health/survival, transport, communications etc. have all benefitted from the approach. Science was formerly carried out largely by technocrats, operating in scientific communities. Science has never been perfect, as it's always been impacted by human foibles like greed, ambition, personal bias etc. It has, however, until recently, been kept relatively honest by self-policing. Two of science's own creations are now changing this.The world wide web was supposed to make information more generally and quickly available.  It has done this but it's also amplified conspiracy hypotheses and weird ideas. Wholly unqualified folk have leapt into the frey. Another creation, Artificial Intelligence, also has beneficial applications but has the disadvantage of being largely based on current or most prominent 'knowledge'. New thinking may not be able to 'evolve' as in days of yore. Biases can also be inappropriately pushed by self interests. One can argue that, with recent developments, science may have "cut its own throat".
