Well, yeah. If I were a physicist, I might find it annoying to give the same press interview for every individual incorrect claim of FTL signaling. It might be nice if somebody replaced me with a chatbot and let me go back to doing physics.
Predictable isn’t necessarily the same as wrong. I suppose, here, one must distinguish between listening as “seeking out the person’s opinion” and listening as “assigning credence to that opinion”. I can listen-1 to crackpots, but I don’t listen-2 to them. I listen-2 to my role models, even when I don’t need to listen-1 to them (thanks to my ability to model their response).
