I was mainly responding to the claim that these black boxes produce a hypothesis that is useful as a basis for scientific theories. I don’t think it does, because it offers no explanation as to the how and why, which is as we agree the primary goal. It doesn’t provide a hypothesis per se, just a prediction, which is useful technologically and should indicate that there is more to be discovered (see my response to the sibling reply) scientifically but offers no motivating explanation.
