So does this undermine academics? the research industry? the academic publishing industry? Who exactly is being "undermined" by this AI product?

With the current attitudes to AI, the name feels a little tone deaf being so easily mistaken for AI undermining people.

Emphasis is meant to be on "mind", like supporting better reasoning, but point taken.

Yeah I get it, but if someone said "check out undermind", I could easily hear it as "check out undermined", as they are pronounced identically for most English language speakers.
