Yep. As soon as you read the title you know it’s useless.
Either too expensive, or it only works at a microscopic level but doesn’t scale, or just doesn’t actually work.
It’s like all the cancer cures you hear about that unfortunstely mostly don’t pan out. Just clickbait headlines.
One thing to always have in mind is that the poor researchers making these discoveries are victims too. They spend months, if not years researching and when they publish their research some random tech website make a clickbait article about it, usually by taking a few sentences out of context and using hyperbole.
A lot of cancer stuff isn’t actually a cure, and if it is it’s only for a specific type of cancer and the success rate is never a headline item.
So you read a headline that says “cure of cancer” which is conveniently leaving out “for specific cancer abc in these specific circumstances with a success rate of 58%”
There’s never really been a true “cure for all cancer 100% success rate” found, and anyone who claims otherwise is misunderstanding the science being discussed.
not to mention many such “cures” that make it to the headlines are still the animal trial phase…
